Confirm these fees before you book so your operator plan and day budget match what you will pay onsite.
Leisurelands reports free general recreation-area admission to both lakes, with vehicle parking charged seasonally and payable by QR or contactless. These park fees are separate from training, gear hire, club-diving arrangements, cable sports or wellness. No universal marine-park tag or standard public scuba permit is documented for these inland lakes, but special activity permissions and the separately managed De Kaaiman entry rules may apply.
