DYROYGUTT - Lofoten Islands

The Dyroygutt wreck is a surprising shallow dive, practically begging for a long bottom time. We love how accessible this site is, sitting at a mere 2m deep, it’s a perfect spot for divers of all levels, or even experienced snorkelers who want a closer look. The 30.5m motor vessel went down in 1974, and since then, the Lofoten waters have been steadily reclaiming it. You'll find the wreck spread across the seabed, its hull and superstructure clearly visible, almost like a ghostly silhouette just beneath the surface. We've spent hours here, just drifting above, watching the light play through the kelp forests that have taken root on its metal bones. Look for small cod darting between the frames and the vibrant anemones clinging to every available surface. It’s a gentle exploration, where you can trace the outline of the deck and imagine its working life before it found its final resting place. Our favourite time to visit is on a calm, sunny day, when the visibility is at its best and the colours truly pop.
