Scuba Diving
Freshwater dives are described across 5–35 m with aquatic plants, rocks, and gentle slopes.
Freediving
The shallow shoreline can work for controlled breath-hold sessions, but the colder water and deeper edge suit trained freedivers with a conservative plan.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling works best close to shore in calm weather. Cold water and surface chop can shorten the comfortable window, so keep sessions short and simple.
