At the eastern end of the lake, divers will find a shallow entrance that quickly descends to 10 meters and slopes deeper to over 30 meters. The lakebed begins with fine white sand, transitioning to a siltier texture as depth increases. Taharoa Lake is home to various freshwater species, including koura, brown trout, rainbow trout, and perch, making it an exciting dive destination without a typical weed line.
