Lake Rotoma
★★★★☆
(3,852)
Great training site and suitable to dive year round. A sunken dingy at 11m is a good objective for the dive. Lake Rotoma was formed within the Rotoma caldera when lava flows from a large crater explosion blocked its outlet 9,500 years ago.
Lots of Koura. Some of the biggest you will see, however, these are protected. You will also see brown and rainbow trout.
