DIVING AT LAKE WEISSENSEE

FASCINATING UNDERWATER WORLD

Discover the beautiful underwater world of Lake Weissensee with excellent visibility. Including picturesque flora & fauna, 20 selected dive spots, rental equipment on site and much more.
 

DIVERSITY UNDER WATER

Lake Weissensee is one of the most beautiful diving areas in the Alps. Visibility of up to 20 metres is not uncommon here. The underwater landscape is diverse and offers variety for beginners and advanced divers alike: from immersed forests  -mystically presented by the sunlight penetrating to a depth of 40 metres, to steeps with deep drops. Thanks to its abundant fish population, encounters with magnificent pike, huge carp, schools of perch, chub, grass carp and many more are not uncommon.

 

The depths of Lake Weissensee can be explored all year round, because this Carinthian lake turns into a popular spot for ice divers in winter.

ALL-INCLUSIVE DIVING EXPERIENCE

20 selected dive spots promise pure variety! These can be approached by catamaran, Zodiac boat or from land (incl. shuttle service). As an advanced diver, you can experience your own personal adventure with an individual electric boat - comfortable and easy! Dry suits, sidemount equipment, scooters and full-face masks as well as 20 complete sets of cold-water diving equipment in mint condition are available from the rental station. The local dive shop stocks products from over 40 manufacturers.
