Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including seals & sea lions, sea turtles and jellyfish lake - REGNBUEN (POSSIBLY) offers some of North Sea Coast's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
Regnbuen, a fishing boat that sank back in 1962, is a brilliant dive if you’re into proper wreck exploration off the North Sea Coast. She lies upright on the seabed at 37 metres, surprisingly intact, which always makes for a more interesting dive. We love poking around her hold, imagining the crew’s final moments. It’s a good size, not so big you get lost, but enough to warrant a few dives to see it all properly. Visibility here can be a bit variable, as it often is in the North Sea, so pick your day carefully – calm conditions are key. But when it’s clear, the light filtering down to the wreck makes the hull glow with an eerie green. Ling and cod often shelter in the shadows of the wheelhouse, and we’ve even spotted a conger eel or two peeking out from under the deck plates. It’s a dive for those comfortable with deeper wrecks and who appreciate the quiet history of a sunken vessel.
