Information about the site
The dive site is named after the wreck that is located some distance from it. You can step in from the beach next to the reeds or by the concrete bridge. If you swim to the right and follow the 13 meter curve, you will find the Betty Blue wreck after 10 minutes. A 6m sailboat that was reported forgotten by the police in Haninge in 2013 and 2014 and then sank on its natural buoy. Betty Blue is still standing neatly, anchored to her line and now covered in small mussels.
There is a lot of marine life to explore at this dive site. On the shallows next to the reeds, it is teeming with life depending on the season. Dy finds bladder wrack, eel nets, mussels, teal fish, seaweed brine, seams, scorpions patrolling around the bottom, a chance for flatfish of several kinds such as turbot and flounder. On night dives, you can keep an eye out for yarrows that sleep with their eyes open. Autumn offers a dance of seaweed prawns and prawns.
This is a versatile dive site that suits all divers. Easy to get in and out, but keep track of your balance!
To think of
The bottom is sandy but covered with sediment, it is easy to strain up. Keep an eye on your fins so they do not drag in the hill because then the following divers will see nothing.
There is a toilet on site, keep it nice so it can continue like this!
