Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including seals & sea lions, sea turtles and jellyfish lake - MYKO offers some of North Sea Coast's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
MYKO, a small yacht sunk in 1983, sits shallow off Fanø in the North Sea. It’s a gentle wreck, resting in just 5 metres, making it approachable for most divers. We've found the hull still largely intact, settled on a sandy seabed, and it offers a simple circuit to explore. Look closely at the superstructure; tiny crabs often scuttle in the shadows, and you'll spot small flatfish camouflaged on the sand nearby. It’s a decent option for a relaxed dive, especially if you’re keen on observing how marine life slowly reclaims a vessel.
