About D/S Romanby
D/S Romanby is a classic Narvik harbour wreck with a clear wartime story and a big, readable hull. The wreck sits upright, so an outside circuit is worthwhile before any wreck-certified overhead exploration. Plan it as a boat dive in cold, tide-sensitive harbor water, with permit coordination and local timing built into the day. It suits divers who want a historic wreck rather than a relaxed reef dive.
