About this dive site

This dive site, known as The Tower, is a freshwater location accessed easily from a small park area with a bench and stairs leading down to a beach entry point. Divers enter and exit via the small beach. Underwater, navigation is straightforward: heading southwest from the entry point will lead to four distinct intake pipes. The southernmost pipe directly guides divers to 'The Tower', which serves as a central feature. The pipes themselves provide a clear path and structure for exploration.

Most of the aquatic life and plant growth at The Tower site is concentrated along these intake pipes and around the Tower structure. Divers can expect to encounter various freshwater fish species, including bass, carp, pike, and bluegill, often found near the protective cover of the pipes and grasses. The grasses provide additional habitat for smaller creatures and add to the underwater scenery.

As a shallow and accessible freshwater site, The Tower is ideal for new divers looking to gain experience or for local divers seeking a convenient spot. Due to its maximum depth of 11 meters, it is also highly suitable for snorkeling and freediving, offering easy access to observe the fish and structures. The best time to visit would typically be during warmer months for more comfortable conditions, though no specific seasonal highlights are noted in the description.
