Why dive here
WILLY is a wreck dive in Stavanger & Rogaland, Norway. Water ranges 4-17°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Willy wreck, a fishing vessel that went down in 1978 after a fire, lies at 60 meters near Langesund. Dropping down, you’ll find the hull largely intact, though time and currents have certainly left their mark. While the fishing vessel isn’t a massive cargo ship, its structure provides plenty of nooks and crannies for exploration. We’ve spotted crabs tucked into crevices and schools of pollack often hang around the superstructure. It's a dive best suited for experienced divers comfortable with deeper wrecks and the cooler waters of the North Sea.
