About Carriere de Vodeleé
Carrière de Vodeleé is an old Belgian marble quarry in Vodelée near Philippeville, with steep quarry walls, layered platforms, and the kind of sheltered inland setup that makes quarry diving feel calm and controlled. It is a classic freshwater site rather than an open-water one. The quarry is stocked with fish, and the deeper water keeps the sturgeon interest alive while the shallower levels carry the main action. Expect a measured shore-entry dive with a cold-water transition below the top layer, plenty of structure, and a very quarry-specific atmosphere.
