Why dive here
With 95+ marine species recorded in the area - including seals & sea lions, sea turtles and jellyfish lake - WESSER II offers some of North Sea Coast's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-19°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Wesser II sits at a comfortable 10 meters, a friendly depth for divers looking to explore a piece of history without the squeeze of decompression. She was a German lighter, sunk by a British mine in 1942, and what remains is a fascinating skeletal structure of metal ribs and hull plates. We love exploring the nooks and crannies here; the light filters through the gaps, illuminating the conger eels peeking from beneath twisted metal. You’ll find flatfish tucked into the sand next to the wreck, and schools of juvenile pollack often swirl above the deck, drawn to the shelter the wreck provides. It’s not a site for massive schools of pelagics, but for a calm, contemplative dive, tracing the outline of a wartime casualty, it’s spot on. Best enjoyed on a slack tide for minimal current and clearer views.
