Seegarten Isleten - Looking for Toads - Late April 2026

Looking for toads in late April 2026 in Seegarten Isleten - what else can I find there?

Late morning in late April 2026 - I’ve arrived to Seegarten in Isleten - a nice but not so popular diving spot. It lies quite apart from agglomerations, on the side of Lake Lucerne with only smaller towns (Altdorf, Flüelen).

I put my stuff on, take my camera and go under the water. At about 8 meters, I find a road sign. It’s hard to say what it is, but we’re in Switzerland, so probably something is forbidden here…

After about 10 minutes, I’ve reached the start of the stone wall, with interesting fissures…

As for toads, I’ve found only this guy…

But there was some fish roe in the aquatic plants…

At the end of the dive, I’ve enjoyed astonishing mountain view…
