Why dive here
Nusfjord is a dive in Lofoten Islands, Norway. Water ranges 3-15°C, warmest July, August, September.
Nusfjord offers a chilly plunge into the Lofoten seascape, often quite dark given the latitude. We've seen various cold-water species, though nothing truly spectacular compared to other Norwegian sites. It’s a site for those curious about Arctic diving, not for divers chasing vibrant reefs or big pelagics. Expect a quiet, atmospheric dive more than an action-packed one.
Safety Notes
Cold water this month (avg 9°C). Drysuit or thick wetsuit (7mm+) recommended.
