This dive site, Tina, is a charming and accessible location nestled in a beautiful bay, just a 15-minute boat ride away. Divers can easily navigate the shallow area, leading to a highlight: a sunken rowing boat resting at 12 meters, providing an interesting focal point. The site is primarily known for its tranquil environment and easy-to-explore features, making it a relaxing dive experience.
The most notable inhabitants of Tina's bay are the large schools of carp, including impressively giant specimens. These fish often appear as shadows, occasionally affecting local visibility as they stir up the sediment. While specific plant life isn't detailed, freshwater lakes in Austria typically feature various aquatic plants, offering a natural habitat for the carp and other smaller freshwater organisms.
The best time to visit Tina would likely be during warmer months when lake temperatures are more comfortable and visibility tends to be at its best, though local visibility can vary with fish activity. Its shallow depth and gentle conditions make it ideal for beginners and excellent for freedivers looking to explore the sunken boat and observe the carp. Ensure good buoyancy control to avoid disturbing the bottom, especially when observing the large carp.
