Morphology
undivable = divable (transparent) = un + dive + able
Literal negation of 'divable' (able to be dived into); the physical sense is a straightforward compositional negative.
Etymology
The word undivable comes from the parts un- 'not', dive 'to jump into water', and -able 'able to'. So a place that is undivable is one you should not dive into because it is too shallow, rough, or dangerous.
