Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including seals & sea lions, sea turtles and jellyfish lake - EMAUS offers some of North Sea Coast's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
Emaus is a wreck site on Denmark's North Sea coast, sitting at a max depth of 15 metres. We classify it as a dangerous wreck, so definitely for experienced wreck divers comfortable with potential hazards. What you'll find here is the skeletal remains of a ship, now home to various crabs and cold-water fish, settled on the seabed. It’s a good option for those looking to explore a piece of maritime history rather than a bustling reef.
