This dive site, known as Vitznau, Seebad (Gummiberg), is located on the picturesque Lake Lucerne in Switzerland. Access is conveniently from shore, with a chargeable parking lot directly after leaving Vitznau in the direction of Gersau. While no specific underwater navigation details are provided, divers can expect typical lake topography and conditions, offering an accessible freshwater diving experience.
The site is home to common freshwater fish species typical of Swiss lakes. Depending on luck and the season, divers may observe perch (Perca fluviatilis), pike (Esox lucius), and various species of eel rods (Truffles). The underwater environment primarily consists of freshwater aquatic plants and typical lakebed substrate, providing a natural habitat for these species.
The best time to visit this dive site would likely be during the warmer months when water temperatures are more comfortable and fish activity might be higher. It's an excellent spot for observing local freshwater marine life and is suitable for both scuba divers and freedivers due to its accessible depths. Divers should be prepared for cooler water temperatures common in mountain lakes, even in summer.
