HET GROENE EILAND
Nederland, Gelderland
Het Groene Eiland is a beautiful dive site in the recreation area De Gouden Ham in Appeltern, with lots of fish and a varied bottom. Diving is only possible via holiday park Capfun, Groene Eiland. In summer, the shallow part of het Groene Eiland is one big garden of underwater plants with lots of small fish. A little more at depth, from about 7 meters, are beautiful clay formations. Het Groene Eiland is connected to the rivier, Maas. As a result, marine life here differs from what you are used to at the average dive site. Look out for typical river species such as wolf crabs, catfish, marbled gobies and mud creepers.
