Why dive here
SUSAN is a wreck dive in Lofoten Islands, Norway. Water ranges 3-15°C, warmest July, August, September.
The fishing vessel Susan rests at 37 metres, a deep but rewarding dive for those comfortable with the colder, darker waters of Lofoten. She’s a non-dangerous wreck, mostly intact, offering plenty of nooks and crannies to explore. We've seen decent numbers of cod sheltering in her hold and around the stern, along with some colourful nudibranchs clinging to the superstructure. Visibility can vary, but on a good day, the details of her deck and rigging become clear, making for a genuinely atmospheric dive. It's a solid wreck dive for experienced cold-water enthusiasts.
