Overijssel

Overijssel is an inland province in the Netherlands, with limited direct saltwater diving. The region is known for its freshwater bodies and accessible dive sites along rivers and lakes, including modest underwater flora and fauna typical of temperate inland waters. Most diving here is organized around local dive centers in Zwolle, Deventer, and Enschede that offer training and guided dives, often near river mouths and lakes. While not a high-salinity coastal destination, Overijssel provides practical options for recreational divers seeking river and lake dives, easy access, and weekend trips from nearby urban centers.
