Chindrieux pairs a calm shore entry with fish-rich weed beds and a deep wall/canyon section that suits experienced profiles farther out.

About Chindrieux

Chindrieux is a Lake Bourget shore dive from a pebble beach, with a shallow shelf that works for discovery dives and a fast transition into a dramatic wall and canyon system farther out. The nearshore weed beds are the real payoff for relaxed profiles, while the deeper structure belongs to experienced divers with solid buoyancy.
