Diving in Germany

Explore diving in Germany

Germany offers a diverse and wonderful variety of dive sites. You can sink deep in to crystal clear Alpine lakes or take the plunge into the Baltic Sea.  WWII buffs, you’ve found your calling. There are shipwrecks all along the coast.

Most diving in Germany is in freshwater, in lakes, old flooded quarries and rivers with many underwater attractions and aquatic life. Diving in German lakes allows you to discover underwater rock formations, submerged forests, and various fish species such as pike, perch, trout, and carp. Lake Constance (Bodensee), is an unreal Alpine lake that is not to be missed. It’s the third largest lake in Central Europe, and there is plenty of technical diving to be had in this incredible place.

Kreidesee Hemmoor, Steinbruch Riesenstein and See im Berg are only some of the amazing old quarries you can explore underwater. Dive into old mining history and encounter many different fish species. These quarries offer controlled environments with good visibility, making them ideal for training, skill development, and recreational diving.
