Why dive here
With 121+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales, orcas and seals & sea lions - Vannlmen offers some of West Coast (Gothenburg)'s richest reef diving. Water ranges 3-18°C, warmest July, August, September.
Vannlmen offers a typical West Coast dive, meaning a cold water experience with plenty of opportunity for macro life spotting. Expect to find crabs, small schooling fish, and nudibranchs clinging to the rocks. Visibility can be a bit variable, but on a good day, it’s a nice site for divers looking for a relaxed local exploration rather than big pelagics. It’s a solid pick for divers already comfortable in colder water and drysuits.
