About this dive site

This dive site, Dreischor Gemaal, is unique for its lack of tidal currents, allowing for diving all day long without concern for water movement. Divers can easily access the water from stairs and explore both to the left and right. The main attraction on the right is an old pumping station, which has become beautifully overgrown, creating an interesting underwater structure for navigation and photography.

The site boasts a diverse array of marine life, making it particularly attractive for macro photographers. Common sightings include anemones, oysters, velvet horn, puital, and various flatfish. In recent times, a significant population of lobsters has also been observed, adding to the rich biodiversity of this shallow water environment.

Thanks to its tide-free nature, Dreischor Gemaal can be visited year-round and at any time of day, offering consistent diving conditions. It is especially recommended for macro enthusiasts and beginners due to its calm waters and abundant small marine life, providing excellent opportunities for underwater photography and leisurely exploration.
