How Hot is this Dive Site? click a star to rate it
The Bosmolenplas is not connected to any river. This means visibility is good most of the year. There are a lot of objects on the bottom like reefballs, boatwrecks, carwrecks, even a selfmade helicopter and airplane. There are also treebranches for perch to lay eggs in springtime. Perch and pike are the most common fish. The small marinelife is also abundant, Mysidacea, mussels, caddis and lots of other small stuff.

At 10 metres there are two platforms for instruction.

At 18metres there is a vertical wall that stops at 28 metres. Due to the thermocline this wil be a cold dive so a drysuit is reccommended.

The shot was taken during a nightdive in januari. The water still very cold and not much life for a picture. My buddy started to feel cold and swim faster and faster. This left me with pictures of his fins.
