BEERSTERPLAS
Nederland, Groningen
Beersterplas is a natural pond with lots of fish and beautiful peat formations. The best part to dive is the northeastern corner. Unfortunately the visibility at De Beersterplas is often poor. On average no more than 2 meters. The reeds on the banks provide shelter to large pikes and pike-perches. At certain times of the year the pond is crowded with crayfish.
Particulars
The best place to enter the water at De Beersterplas is on the northeastern side, where big pike prey on young fish. Other interesting areas are the peat formations and the reeds fields near the shore.
Warnings
Beersterplas often has bad visibility, especially after rain. Beware of car burglary. Watch out for fishermen when entering the water on the south side.
