    Lila, near Gothenburg, offers a straightforward wreck dive that’s good for a relaxed exploration. This fishing vessel sits upright at 14 metres, making it an accessible dive for most. We’ve found the stern section is the most intact part, still showing off some of its original structure. Look closely, and you’ll spot crabs tucked into crevices and small schools of pollack darting through the wheelhouse. It’s not a massive wreck, but it’s a solid dive for those looking to potter around a decent-sized structure without needing advanced skills. The local dive centres know the best mooring spots, so check with them before you go.
