About Carrière de Chamagnieu
Carrière de Chamagnieu is a freshwater quarry dive site with a dedicated waterfront base, heated changing rooms, rental gear, and a shallow practice area. The quarry walls step down into a silty basin, so it works well for skills practice, check dives, and relaxed exploration when you keep your trim clean. Book ahead and plan for cool water and visibility that can change with season and diver traffic.
