This dive site, Kraaijenbergse plas 8, is located near a white bridge, though diving directly under it is prohibited. It offers ample parking space, which can become quite muddy after heavy rainfall. As one of the Kraaienbergse Plassen lakes, it forms part of a larger system popular among local divers and is known for its relatively calm conditions.
The site is home to a diverse array of marine life, with a notable abundance of young fish thriving in its waters. The most distinctive inhabitants are the Chinese mitten crabs, which can often be spotted here, alongside many other common freshwater species found in the region's lakes.
The best time to visit this dive site for enjoyable conditions is typically during the warmer months, from late spring to early autumn, when water temperatures are more comfortable. Divers should be prepared for potentially muddy parking conditions, especially after rainfall. It is suitable for both scuba divers and freedivers seeking to observe freshwater aquatic life, particularly for macro photography enthusiasts.
