Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including seals & sea lions, sea turtles and jellyfish lake - TABOR offers some of North Sea Coast's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
Diving the Tabor is a real journey into North Sea history, though a somber one. This old trawler went down in '69 after hitting a mine, and she now rests upright at 26 meters, mostly intact. The stern section is particularly interesting, with a visible propeller and the rudder still in place, acting like a magnet for cod and various flatfish. Expect decent visibility on a good day, but the current can pick up, so it’s best suited for those comfortable with drift diving. Exploring the deck offers glimpses into the past, with the remains of fishing gear slowly being reclaimed by the sea.
