Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including seals & sea lions, sea turtles and jellyfish lake - SORSTRAND (PROBABLY) offers some of North Sea Coast's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Sorstrand, likely, offers a deep dive into North Sea history. Sunk in 1981 after a heavy list in high seas, this 55-meter motor vessel now rests upright at 27 meters, making for a substantial wreck to explore. We’ve found the stern section particularly intact, with the propeller still in place and home to some hefty cod. Inside the holds, you’ll often spot conger eels snaking through the shadows, while the superstructure attracts schools of pollack. This dive suits experienced divers comfortable with deeper, colder water and looking for a classic North Sea wreck adventure.
