BERGSE DIEPSLUIS HANGCULTUUR 81A
Nederland, Zeeland
Bergse Diepsluis Hangcultuur is a well known dive site with a beautiful suspended mussel farm. The site is known for its squids and cuttlefish. They visit this dive site in May and June to mate. Every year special cuttlefish racks are placed by volunteers, on which they can lay their eggs. This beautiful spectacle is an annual attraction for thousands of divers. As a bonus, Bergse Diepsluis lies in a tributary of the Oosterschelde, which makes the tidal effect almost nonexistent.
Particulars
Bergse Diepsluis Hangcultuur is easy to find. Walk from the parking lot at Bergse Diepsluis Oesterdam (81), west along the dike up to the buoys of the mussel farm. Then enter the water at the white line on the dike wall. The mussels are overgrown with beautiful vegetation and provide shelter to numerous skeleton shrimps.
Warnings
Don't dive at Bergse Diepsluis Hangcultuur when the fishermen are at work. Don't touch the mussels.
