Lake Annecy meadow dive with easy shore access.
Beaurivage is a shallow Lake Annecy meadow dive, with a characea bed and a summer hippuris forest rising toward the surface before the bottom turns into boulders farther north. It is a calm freshwater site for easy buoyancy practice, lake-fish spotting, and relaxed shore-access diving in a scenic alpine setting, with the shallow meadow making it especially useful for skills work and low-stress exploration.
