SKRAENTEVRAGET - Bornholm
Skraentevraget is a lighter vessel sitting upright at 16 metres, now classified as a dangerous wreck due to its deteriorating structure. The wreck itself offers interesting exploration for divers comfortable with overhead environments, though we'd advise caution around unstable sections. You'll find plenty of cod, blennies, and crustaceans living within the wreckage, making for an atmospheric dive for those keen on wreck penetration and observing marine life in a confined space.
