Bodman Alter Hafen

Bodman - Alter Hafen is a local freshwater dive site on the shore of Bodman, near the Swiss border, in the Bodensee region. The site sits at the Alter Hafen (old harbor), where divers typically access the water from the shoreline. Depths are shallow, with typical profiles around a few meters, making it suitable for entry-level training and refresh dives. The underwater terrain includes calm harbor benches and aquatic vegetation common to low-energy freshwater habitats. Visibility varies with weather and recent activity in the harbor. Typical freshwater species in the area can include small native fish and invertebrates associated with calm, nutrient-rich waters. Access is easy for nearby towns; it is commonly used by local dive clubs for short practice dives and skill development.
