Dive-site story
Located on the southern shore of Lake Constance, Bootsrampe Rorschach is a straightforward shore entry utilizing a local boat ramp. The underwater terrain transitions from shallow gravel beds into a steady silt slope scattered with freshwater vegetation, submerged poles, and old harbor debris. Visibility changes drastically through the year, often shifting from murky green layers near the surface in warmer months to clear, quiet water during winter.
Convenient shore access straight from the concrete slipway
Night diving opportunities for observing nocturnal predators on the silt slope
Sheltered shallow areas suitable for skill practice and buoyancy training
