About this dive site

This dive site, known as Strick, is located on Zugersee (Lake Zug) between the towns of Arth and Immensee in Switzerland. It offers convenient shore access with parking available on both sides of the street, making entry relatively easy. There is no specific historical information provided for the dive site itself, but divers can expect a typical lake environment with depths reaching up to 30 meters.

The underwater environment of Strick hosts a variety of freshwater marine life. Divers might encounter common freshwater fish species such as perch, pike, and sun perch. With some luck, crayfish can also be spotted. The site is particularly known for char, although diving is prohibited during their spawning season.

The best time to visit Strick is outside the char spawning season, which runs from October 15 to December 15. During permissible times, the site offers a good experience for both scuba divers and freedivers, with an average depth of 15 meters. Divers should be prepared for cold water typical of Swiss lakes and be mindful of the seasonal restrictions.
