This dive site, known as Watersports, is situated in Austria and offers an exceptional experience for divers of all skill levels. Entry to the water is conveniently provided via stairs, leading to a diverse underwater environment. Divers can explore multiple training platforms, strategically placed at depths ranging from 5m to 40m (though maximum scuba depth is 15m), providing excellent opportunities for skill development and progression. A major highlight includes the exploration of a sunken sailboat and a car wreck, adding intriguing artificial reefs to the natural landscape. While no specific history is provided for these wrecks, they serve as focal points for navigation and discovery.
The marine life at Watersports is predominantly freshwater species, with abundant perch found throughout the site. Divers have very good chances of spotting pike, especially in the areas with denser vegetation. During spring, the heavily vegetated shallow zones become nurseries for a high number of juvenile fish, contributing to a vibrant ecosystem and offering excellent opportunities for observation of nascent life.
The best time to visit Watersports, particularly for observing juvenile fish, is during the spring months when the shallow areas teem with young aquatic life. Beyond diving, the site is exceptionally family-friendly, boasting a large sunbathing area, clean toilets, and an on-site buffet, making it suitable for a full day out. Divers benefit from a direct air filling station and equipment rental, ensuring convenience. Freedivers will appreciate the multiple platforms for depth training, while snorkelers can enjoy the lively, vegetated shallow areas near the surface.
