SUSANNE REITH - Strytan & North Iceland

The Susanne Reith, a carrier vessel that came to grief in a 1964 storm, sits right at the entrance to Raufarhofn Harbour. What remains is pretty shallow, just 2 metres, making it accessible to pretty much anyone who wants a peek. We’re talking about the hull and superstructure, enough to get a real feel for her 71-meter length. It’s not about grand swim-throughs here, but rather a chance to observe how the local creatures have made a home on the wreck, sometimes with surprising fish life tucked into the nooks. Perfect for a leisurely dive or even a snorkel if the conditions are calm.
