About Zaovinsko jezero
Zaovinsko jezero is a high-altitude mountain lake in Tara National Park with clear freshwater, shore access that changes with lake level, and a dive profile that becomes more interesting as you move deeper. It is a strong choice for divers who want cold-water training, rocky bottom structure, and a big scenic lake rather than a tropical-style reef. Expect a serious inland dive with good visibility once you leave the shallow zone and plan around the changing shoreline.

Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba
Shore-based lake diving on a rocky bottom with clearer water below the shallow zone and stronger training-value depth changes.

Freediving is best limited to the calmest shallow areas because the lake gets cold and the bottom drops off.
Snorkel
Snorkeling works only in the calmest shallow water; the interesting diving is deeper.
