    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    Møkkalassa, off the West Coast near Gothenburg, gives you a real taste of Scandinavian diving. It’s a site where you need to keep your eyes peeled for the smaller, more unusual stuff. We’ve found long rough dab tucked into the sand and had luck spotting a four-bearded rockling nosing around the rocks. Keep an ear out too, as harbour porpoises are known to cruise through the area. It’s a decent spot for a chilled out dive, perhaps if you’re looking to tick off a few species you won't find further south. We'd suggest it for divers who appreciate a quiet explore rather than big pelagic action.

    Safety Notes

    Cold water this month (avg 13°C). Drysuit or thick wetsuit (7mm+) recommended.
