ROSNAES - North Sea Coast
Rosnaes sits at a comfortable 19 meters, a fishing vessel that met its end in 1967 after a fire. It’s a good little wreck for an easy dive, especially if you’re looking to explore something manageable without deep decompression obligations. You’ll find the wreck largely intact, providing shelter for various crabs and cod. The structure itself is starting to soften with growth, but you can still make out the general shape of the vessel, with plenty of nooks and crannies to peer into. It's a solid choice for newer wreck divers or anyone looking for a relaxed dive with a bit of history to it.
