OLIVA - Stavanger & Rogaland

The Oliva, a carrier vessel sunk by an engine room explosion in 1971, offers a substantial dive in the chilly Norwegian waters. Lying at 25 metres, its 97-metre length means you’ll need more than one dive to properly explore the whole thing. The hull provides plenty of nooks and crannies for cod and pollock to shelter, and we often spot wolf fish tucked away in darker corners. Due to its status as a "dangerous wreck" and the depth, this is one for experienced divers comfortable with cold water and deeper wreck penetration if done with a guide.
