Explore the water around Netherlands
Many believe the waters surrounding The Netherlands have more underwater life than the Mediterranean Sea. After diving in The Oosterschelde, you might believe it too. Bergse Diepsluis is less challenging than other dive sites in this area, but still rich with life. Situated in a tributary of The Oosterschelde, there is little to no tidal current, making it an ideal breeding ground for cuttlefish and squid. Colourful anemones, crustaceans and invertebrates are abundant year-round. Spring is the best time to see cuttlefish, but wait until the water temperature reaches 12°C/53°F. The maximum depth is 19 metres/62 feet. Average visibility is 4 metres/13 feet. Photo Credit: Daniel Versteeg

Great place to dive, easy to access, almost none currents, so diveable day-round. Also a great place for instructions, there's a platform which is used by many dive instructors. Facilities; a (chemical) toilet, stairs into water.
