Amersfoort is a landlocked city in the Netherlands. While it isn’t a coastal diving destination, it serves as a practical gateway to diving in the region. Nearby options include freshwater sites and training opportunities within the country, plus short trips to coastal centers and the North Sea coast for day dives. The city itself offers good infrastructure, easy access from Utrecht and Amsterdam, and access to archives and gear shops for divers passing through. Expect typical Dutch inland conditions when training or visiting nearby freshwater sites, with an emphasis on local clubs and courses rather than destination diving.
