A wonderful quarry but unfortunately the owners are not really cool. Moreover you can do only one dive per day, maximum 2 if you book; but it worth to go.
La Gombe is situated in Esneux (20 km from Liege) near to the center of the town.

This is a very popular site in Belgium. There is a bus and helicopter sunk at the site to explore. There are several other interesting things on the bottom as well. I found a 3m tall wine cask, a statue of a scuba diver, several "road signs", etc. The lake is home to lots of small fish, and a few larger perch can usually be seen near the bus. One of the best things about it is the restaurant. They have GREAT steaks for a very reasonable price. Pre-order when you get there in the morning, dive, then have a steak lunch during your surface interval. Tank re-fills are available for 3 euro, and the fee for diving there is 3 euro per day...total of 6 euro plus 10 euro for a great lunch makes for a very reasonable dive day.
Road is clearly marked coming from Philippeville about 10 kms. away. Plate Taille is one of 5 artificial lakes in the area and they're all connected by the surrounding "route des barrages" road loop. The diving centre is next to the dam to the south-east.
Two parking areas: a sloping paved road leading to the cafeteria and the diving entry point, and the grass parking lot to its left. The area to the right is used as heliport by the emergency services.
Plate Taille is also known as Lake Taille, Barrage de l'Eau d'Heure.
