Explore Mondsee

Mondsee, nestled between Upper Austria and Salzburg, offers a unique freshwater diving experience that is both challenging and rewarding. Known as the warmest lake in the region, Mondsee is a haven for fish enthusiasts, with its waters teeming with species like zander and pike. The thick, lush vegetation along the shoreline provides a rich habitat, making it an ideal spot for recreational divers who enjoy observing aquatic life in its natural environment.

This lake is particularly fascinating due to its dark waters, caused by a high concentration of plankton. This makes diving here a unique experience, as lamps are essential to explore the underwater scenery. Divers can expect to discover intriguing features such as car wrecks, an old phone box, and fallen tree trunks, particularly on the south side of the lake where access is easier. With these captivating underwater sights, Mondsee stands out as a must-visit for those looking to explore freshwater diving in Austria.
