Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including seals & sea lions, sea turtles and jellyfish lake - SVEA offers some of North Sea Coast's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
The SVEA wreck sits shallow, just two metres down off the North Sea Coast. What remains is pretty broken up, but you'll find bits of metal structure scattered across the seabed. It's a spot more for wreck history buffs or those wanting an easy, shallow dive to poke around the fragments, rather than a big exploration. Fish like cod and flatfish often shelter among the scattered pieces.
