HENNESEE
Duitsland, Nordrhein-Westfalen
The Hennesee is located in the Berghauser Bay, near the German city of Meschede. It's a dive site with steep walls which are completely covered with mussels. They looks like a starry sky underwater in the glow of your dive lamp. The Hennesee is managed by the local German rescue team (DLRG). Sign up online at the DLRG to plan your dive.
Particulars
The Hennesee is easily accessible via a path and stairs. The bottom of the dive site descents gradually, but suddenly drops down steeply on the left side of the dive area. The Hennesee used to be a quarry, remains like old tools and two old masts can still be seen.
Warnings
Sign up online at DLRG in advance. Stay away from the marina. Swimming area bordered with buoy line.
