Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including seals & sea lions, sea turtles and jellyfish lake - NANCY offers some of North Sea Coast's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
The *Nancy* isn't a showstopper, but for wreck enthusiasts along Denmark's North Sea coast, she’s a solid dive. This old fishing vessel settled upright in 23 metres back in 1946, making her a fairly accessible wreck for divers comfortable with colder water and decent visibility. You’ll find the typical North Sea residents here: plenty of wrasse darting in and out of the hull, some plump cod sheltering inside, and often some rather large edible crabs scuttling across the deck plates. It's a proper little artificial reef now, a nice example of how quickly nature reclaims things. We’d suggest a low-current day to make the most of poking around her superstructure.
