Dive-site story
Located along the southern shore of Lake Geneva near Anières, La Cochère provides direct lake access over a gradual gravel slope that transitions into a silty descent. Divers explore submerged vegetation in the shallows where juvenile fish congregate before following the drop-off into cooler deeper water.
