Switzerland

St. Gallen

St. Gallen is an inland administrative region in northeastern Switzerland. It’s not a typical sea diving area, as the region itself lacks direct access to saltwater seas. Nearby freshwater and alpine lakes offer limited diving options, but most notable diving activity in this part of Switzerland centers on inland sites and close-by cantons. For divers, access is typically achieved via longer trips to coastal regions or specialized freshwater diving venues outside the region. The local dive centers primarily serve nearby urban areas and provide training and excursions to external freshwater or adjacent countries’ diving destinations.
