This dive site is a privately owned, active gravel pit in Hungary, exclusively accessible by appointment through H2O Divingacademy. It is fed by groundwater, ensuring a consistent water supply. There's no public access, making it a controlled environment ideal for dive training and local exploration. Its history is tied to its industrial origin as a gravel extraction site, now repurposed for aquatic activities.
The lake supports various freshwater fish species, including notable sightings of catfish and pike, which can grow to considerable sizes. The bottom consists primarily of gravel or fine sediment, providing a natural habitat for these species, although specific plant life or macro organisms are not detailed.
The best time to visit for diving is generally during the warmer months, from late spring to early autumn, when water temperatures are more comfortable and fish activity might be higher. Divers should contact H2O Divingacademy in advance to arrange access and get current conditions, including water temperature and visibility. This site is particularly well-suited for beginner divers due to its manageable depth and calm conditions, and also offers good opportunities for freediving practice.
