This dive site, Amphion, is primarily accessed from the shore and offers a versatile underwater landscape. It begins with a shallow plateau, approximately 6 meters deep, running along the bank, which is perfect for introductory dives and beginners. Beyond this plateau, a gentle slope extends to depths exceeding 60 meters, making it an excellent location for various dive training courses and deeper exploration.
The site boasts diverse freshwater flora, including various aquatic plants and a dense herbarium that forms a prominent 'curtain' between 4 and 6 meters deep during summer. The fauna includes common lake species such as perches, féras, pikes, carps, and tanches, along with smaller inhabitants like shrimps and crayfish, providing interest for macro enthusiasts.
The best time to visit Amphion is during the summer months when the impressive herbarium is at its fullest, offering a unique visual experience. This site is highly recommended for all levels of divers, from those taking their first breaths underwater to those undertaking advanced training. Its gentle slopes and varying depths also make it an excellent spot for freediving.
