This dive site, Abborrkroken, offers easy shore access with parking right next to the entry point, ensuring convenient entry and exit. The underwater topography features a gently sloping bottom down to approximately 25 meters, where it dramatically transitions into a wall that plunges to over 50 meters. A notable point of interest and navigational aid is an old log anchor, located at around 11 meters depth to the left of the entry point.
The marine life here includes various fish species such as Perch, large Pipefish, and Cod, which can be observed depending on the season. While the description notes limited vegetation, the presence of Pipefish suggests opportunities for macro photography focusing on smaller creatures.
The best time to visit Abborrkroken largely depends on the specific fish species you wish to encounter, as their presence varies seasonally. This site is highly suitable for both snorkeling and freediving, especially in the shallower, sloping areas. For scuba divers, the wall offers deeper exploration, appealing to divers of all experience levels. Given its location in Sweden, divers should be prepared for cold water conditions, typically requiring drysuit diving.
