Diving around Munich, Germany

GKAM · 1st January 2007, 19:26

I'll be moving to Munich, Germany in mid-January for a three year assignment. My mCCR rig is a homebuilt and I guess I will have trouble using it there so I am only taking OC sports diving gear with me.

Any hints, tips or contacts for some diving there are most welcome.

Cheers,
George

Why you will have trouble ?

Rebreathers arent forbidden in Bavaria

If you stay in Munich the Walchensee is not far away

Wilkommen am schönen Walchensee, zum Tauchen, Tec-Diving und Biken.

Thanks for the Walchensee link.

RBs may not be forbidden in Bavaria but I doubt anyone will fill my O2 or DIL tanks. They are both 2L ex-medical O2 steel tanks that I pump in a "communal", garage-based filling station.

I have no dive buddies in Munich (yet) and a modified Russian CCR rig is probably not the best thing for introductions

I'm originally from the Chicago area, but have been living in Munich for many years now. A favorite lake of mine is the Bodensee, Europe's largest (?) inland lake on the German/Swiss/Austrian border. Dive sites on the Bodensee include several walls, as well as the wreck of the steamer Jura. Closer by the Walchensee and Starnbergersee are also nice, although a couple of their better sites are closed in the winter. Give me a call on my mobile at 0171-3047137 when you get in town. Pete

Great stuff! I'm moving to MUC on Jan 12th and start work on the 15th. I suppose it's gonna take me a couple of weeks to find my bearings and then it's time for some diving!!!

Guys, thanks for the contacts. I'll be sending PMs.
