Why dive here
With 66+ marine species recorded in the area - including jellyfish lake - Minos offers some of Bornholm's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Minos wreck lies off Bornholm, a decent shore dive accessible from the beach. She’s a small freighter, broken in two, with her stern sitting upright and the bow section collapsed. We've found the wreck provides good shelter, making it a comfortable dive even when the sea's a bit choppy. It’s a straightforward site, good for knocking off the rust or for newer divers.
