Beach entry at the restaurant side leads into a gradual freshwater slope with peat blocks, plants, and fish-rich canyons.
About De Strandgaper
Shore-entry freshwater dive with broad peat-block canyons, plant-lined shallows, and a fish-rich lakebed that stays approachable from the beach. It suits relaxed navigation, careful buoyancy, disciplined trim, and slow kicks over the silty bottom, with the shallow plant zone giving way to the broader peat-block route farther out.

Scuba Diving
Easy shore scuba with a gradual approach from the beach, then peat blocks and vegetation along the buoy line.
Freediving
Possible as shallow practice near the beach, but the main structure sits farther along the peat-block route and is better explored on scuba.
Snorkeling
The shallow plant zone near shore can work for snorkelers in calm conditions, but the peat-block route is better for scuba.
