Best for advanced divers, 10m, boat entry, mild current.
De Val is a freshwater reef dive in Zeeland, Netherlands, featuring a consistent depth of 10 metres. This site is suited for advanced divers due to variable conditions that require strong navigation skills and buoyancy control. Visibility typically ranges between 3 and 8 metres and can shift unpredictably, making situational awareness essential. While currents are generally mild, the water temperature can be cold, dropping to approximately 4°C in winter. Divers should prepare all equipment and gas supplies before arrival, as there are no confirmed facilities on-site. Entry to the water is shore-based.

Check visibility conditions locally before committing to the dive, as the lower end of the range (3 metres) changes the experience significantly and affects how much of the reef structure you can actually read. Facilities are not confirmed on site, so sort kit and gas at your base before heading out.
Park on the Blomweg road, then walk to the waterfront. Enter the water from the embankment opposite the green buoy SP29. Accessible only from sunrise to sunset.
