    The Bruin wreck lies off Bornholm, a substantial motor vessel that went down in 1975 after a collision. She sits upright at 60 meters, making this a dive for experienced technical divers. We’ve found the stern section particularly intact, with the prop still visible and plenty of deck machinery to explore. Look for the large resident cod and conger eels that have made a home in the deeper parts of the wreck; they’re often quite curious. Visibility can vary, but on a good day, the scale of the Bruin is impressive.

    Wreck site - avoid penetration without wreck diving certification. Watch for sharp metal and entanglement hazards.

    Cold water this month (avg 14°C). Drysuit or thick wetsuit (7mm+) recommended.

    Always perform a 3-minute safety stop at 5m before surfacing.
