About this dive site

This dive site, Svartfotsvraket, is located near Djurö, Sweden, offering a shallow wreck dive experience. Divers can easily enter from a small beach situated behind a boathouse. To find the wreck, descend under the pier closest to the boathouse and swim a few meters straight ahead where the remains will become visible. The site features an old, broken-up boat that historically served as housing for strike breakers before it mysteriously burned down.

Marine life around the Svartfotsvraket primarily consists of perch and various shrimps. While occasionally a 'simpa' (likely a type of sculpin) can be spotted, such sightings are not frequent. The site is noted for having a modest amount and variety of marine animals, focusing mainly on these smaller species.

The optimal time to visit this dive site would generally be during the warmer months in Sweden, offering more comfortable water temperatures for diving. Its shallow depth and straightforward shore entry make it an excellent choice for beginner divers seeking a relaxed exploration. The accessible nature of the site also makes it highly suitable for both snorkelers and freedivers looking to explore an interesting, albeit broken, wreck structure.
