About This Dive Spot

De Melle is a freshwater dive site with a length of 930 meters and a maximum width of 480 meters. The bottom consists of sand with hills, reaching a maximum depth of 11 meters. Visibility is generally good up to the thermocline, but deeper areas often experience low visibility for most of the year.

The site is rich in vegetation, and during late summer, the shallower regions are teeming with various fish species, including perch, rudd, eel, bream, tench, and pike.
