Year-round Starnberger See entrance with shallow dives and variable visibility.
Year-round Starnberger See entrance with shallow dives and variable visibility.
Leonie is one of the few year-round diveable entrances on Starnberger See, with relaxed freshwater dives, a lake-bottom landscape that stays interesting outside the summer season, and enough life to keep repeat visits worthwhile. The site works best for divers who want a steady lake entry, variable visibility, and a simple east-shore setup rather than a high-friction expedition.
