JYLLAND
Why dive here
With 121+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, orcas and seals & sea lions - JYLLAND offers some of West Coast (Gothenburg)'s richest wreck diving. Water ranges 3-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Jylland isn't just another wreck. She’s an old fishing vessel, sunk in 1945, and she’s found a quiet final resting place that offers a surprisingly engaging dive. We love the way she sits upright and mostly intact, offering plenty of nooks and crannies to explore without being overly complex. You’ll find her hull draped in anemones, a pale tapestry against the darker steel, and the wheelhouse is still largely recognisable, a ghostly shadow of its working days. Her depth is perfect for extended bottom times, allowing you to really soak in the details. We’ve often seen schools of cod weaving through her superstructure, and small crabs scuttling across the deck plates. The visibility here can be variable, but even on a greener day, the Jylland holds her character. For those looking for a relaxed wreck dive with a bit of history, this is our pick. Just remember your drysuit; it’s Sweden, after all.
