Aarschot is a landlocked city in Flemish Brabant, Belgium. While not a coastal diving hub, it sits in a country with rich diving opportunities along the North Sea coast and at nearby freshwater sites. Local diving activity centers around training and access to nearby pools and clubs; the single local dive center serves as a base for courses and gear rental. For divers visiting, options include day trips to saltwater dive sites on the Belgian coast or standard training dives at nearby freshwater locations along rivers and quarries in the region. The Motte River offers freshwater immersion opportunities nearby, though these are separate from the coastal diving ecosystem.
