Lower Saxony

Lower Saxony is a largely inland region in northern Germany, with limited direct access to saltwater. Diving within this行政 region centers on freshwater bodies, man-made reservoirs, and aquifer-fed lakes, plus access to nearby coastal diving across the North Sea via ferry towns and adjacent states. The region’s dive centers and sites span inland thermal springs, sport-diving lakes, and occasional guided trips to coastal areas offering shore and boat dives. Expect mid-range visibility, temperate water, and diverse freshwater life in lakes, with occasional brackish conditions in near-coastal outlets.
