Meersburg – Wilder Mann
In front of the Hotel 'Wilder Mann' on the Meersburg promenade, a small wall drops to about 10 m and gives way to slope. Heading east at 20 m, the slope turns into a wall and after 15–20 minutes you reach the first of three car wrecks at 22–23 m; a fourth car lies at 61 m and the wreck of the 'Old Joe' at 63 m in front of the harbour. Heading west, an old well lies at 35–38 m and the wall of the 'Fährhaus/Möwe' site reaches down to 80 m.

- Tips: Winter site only: the Bodenseekreis general order allows diving here from 31 October to 15 March; a local guide adds that you should dive only when no ferries run. Park at the ferry car park (paid) and use the small stone steps – the last steps are usually very slippery. Set up the 'A' flag on shore.
