Dive-site story
Located on the northern shore of Lake Neuchâtel, Serrières is an accessible lake shore dive known for its drop-offs and varied underwater terrain. Divers enter from the lakeside area and follow the gently sloping bed past weed zones before reaching steeper sediment banks and deep rocky walls. A drysuit and good buoyancy control are essential when navigating the siltier slopes and distinct thermoclines.
Steep lake drop-off with dramatic sediment terraces and rocky outcrops
Opportunity to encounter nocturnal and bottom-dwelling freshwater species along deep shelves
Convenient shore access with dedicated steps and entry points
