Why dive here
With 66+ marine species recorded in the area - including jellyfish lake - Kriegers Flak offers some of Bornholm's richest reef diving. Water ranges 3-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
Kriegers Flak, off the coast of Bornholm, offers a dive experience unique to the Baltic Sea. It’s not your typical tropical coral, but a fascinating example of cold-water reef systems thriving with an impressive array of species. You'll likely encounter large schools of saithe and Pollock, sometimes so dense they form moving walls of silver. Keep an eye out for the more unusual long rough dab or the strangely beautiful lumpsucker tucked into crevices. This site is best for divers who appreciate the subtle beauty of temperate waters and aren’t afraid of conditions that can be a bit challenging, though rewarding.
Safety Notes
