Best for beginner divers, 20-40m, shore entry.
Falaise de Glaise is a freshwater wall dive located in Lake Geneva, featuring a submerged cliff face that drops from 20 to 40 metres. The site is accessible via a shore entry, making it a straightforward option for beginner divers. With no current to manage, divers can focus on buoyancy and wall exploration. Visibility typically ranges between 5 and 10 metres, providing an opportunity to build confidence in lower-visibility conditions. Due to the cold water environment, adequate thermal protection such as a drysuit or a thick wetsuit with hood and gloves is strongly recommended for all dives.
