TANA - West Coast (Gothenburg)
The Tana, a fishing trawler that went down in 1924, rests upright at 35 metres. It’s a silty dive, so careful buoyancy is key to keeping visibility good. She’s largely intact, offering opportunities to explore the wheelhouse and parts of the engine room if you’re comfortable with overhead environments. Anglerfish and conger eels often shelter within the hull, making it a good spot for patient wreck divers.
