CLAUS BOGE

The Claus Boge, a cargo steamer, sits upright in the North Sea, a properly eerie dive. We love that it’s still so intact after going down in 1938, carrying ammunition from Oslo. Dropping onto the deck at 33 metres, you can still see the huge winches and cargo holds, some of them open to explore if you’re comfortable with overhead environments. The visibility here can be a bit of a gamble, but when it’s good, you’ll find cod sheltering in the deeper sections of the wreck, and schools of pollock shimmering around the superstructure. It's a sombre, quiet dive. This wreck truly suits divers who appreciate history and enjoy the silent exploration of a well-preserved vessel. You’ll spend your bottom time navigating the deck, peering into companionways, and watching crabs scuttle across the plating. The sheer scale and the sense of history make it a genuinely captivating dive, perfect for those with solid wreck diving experience.
