German term or phrase: flach abfallendes Wasser
En una guía sobre playas, aparece a menudo:

flach abfallendes Wasser/ flach abfallendes Meer/ Das Meer fällt flach ab

¿Alguna idea? No sé si bastaría con agua llana o poco profunda. Gracias

Balsa de agua


Explanation:
Me imagino que quieren expresar la tranquilidad y quietud del mar o del agua con la metáfora de la balsa de agua cuya imagen es de serenidad por el no movimiento.
Quizás te ayude o eso espero.

Example sentence(s):
  • Aventuras sin fronteras ... cálido pero con una agradable brisa que parecía darte aliento mientras te tostabas al sol, el mar estaba quieto y transparente, como una balsa de agua...

aguas en suave declive

Lo de flach no se refiere a la profundidad del agua sino a la suavidad ("planitud") de la pendiente.
