Lake Murner is a recreational water body in the Upper Palatinate Lake District with an area of about 90 hectares. Although it is not as large and well-known as the Steinberger See, it is frequented by bathers, divers, water sports enthusiasts and campers in summer, as the banks have been recultivated.
On the southern shore of Lake Murner See, a former open-cast lignite mine, you will find the entrance “Slide.“ At about 5 m a metal material slide begins, which goes down to a depth of about 40 m. In the shallow area there is also a beautiful underwater forest. The acidic water provides mostly good visibility.
The Peltastis wreck is located between Šilo and the bay of Klimno, a hundred meters from the northeastern coast of the island, at depths of 12 to 32 meters.
At the northern shore of the Murner See, a former brown coal open pit mine, you will find the entrance “Holzturm“ / “Aussichtsturm.“ After the entrance on the left, you will find a 20 m stepped mining platform with many, small “sights“ above 10 m. From the entrance straight ahead a rope leads into the depth.
The Echinger Weiher is an artificially created Baggersee in the north of Munich. With a size of about 100 x 250m and a maximum depth of 8m it is suitable for training and practice dives. The lake is located in a nature reserve. Please note: a diving license must be purchased in advance!
North of the Fernpass, at almost 1100 m, lies the 25 m deep Blindsee Lake. High fish abundance, sunken landscapes of roots and trees in combination with unbelievable visibility allow for fantastic dives. Tthere is also a lot to discover for the macro-lovers.
This reef breaks the waters surface forming a small rocky, jagged islet. The underwater landscape is as rugged as the surface. Beginners can dive on the reef around the islet keeping to the shallower depths, while more advanced divers can do a deeper dive to some fascinating large yellow and red gorgonian corals.
The house reef at Mihuric offers a variety of life and geological formations in different levels up to 35m. Several boats, a statue, and a buoyancy control park offer perfect conditions for familiarization dives and all kinds of training.
Kreide-See is a well known and popular diving lake. In former times chalk was mined here. The roads, the vibrator, trucks, conveyor belts, and some machines that were needed for the mining can still be visited underwater.
Entry can be reached via the large meadow in the direction of the jetty and takes you directly to the platform at 5 meters. Very good for skill exercises.
A very nice dive site on the east side of the island of Krk. Like a pyramid, Tenki stands in the water. After the entrance at 3m, there is a small tunnel which leads to 9m deep. Two steep walls (up to about 20m and the next one up to about 40m) are worth seeing. In the shallow water, there are great geo formations.
Cenote with dripstones, Well accessible via stairs. Good entry - beware of silt out. Maximum 4 - 6m deep and partly very shallow. Must have good buoyancy.
The Happurger Baggersee is in the Nuremberg area. Size approx. 350 x 150 meters. Maximum depth 8 meters. The entrance is near the water rescue station. There is a restaurant and toilets open seasonally. This site is not to be confused with Happurger Stausee, as diving is prohibited there.
The Chalk Lake has an area of 33 hectares and is 60 meters deep. During longer periods of good weather, visibility can rise up to 25 meters, thus creating an optimal dive location.
There are several diving platforms at different depths, suitable for OWD students and other courses. The entrance is designed to be easily accessible for beginners.
