Preekhil - De Val

★★★★☆ (208)

The dive site is located on the edge of the Preekhilpolder, named after a chapel that once stood there. At the end of the lawn at the parking lot is a gate, go through it and walk over the dike. Follow right then left until you reach the end (point) of the dike, a decent walk.

The same life here as in the rest of the Grevelingen. Crab, shrimp, starfish and the occasional butterfish can be found here. In the spring there are often flaky nudibranch.
