Shallow Baltic shore site with seagrass and stones
Shallow Baltic shore site with seagrass and stones
Access depends on local firing times and warning zones.
Blanck-Eck is a shallow Baltic shore dive beside the Putlos shooting range in Schleswig-Holstein. It is known for seagrass meadows, stone fields with marine growth, and small bottom-dwelling life rather than dramatic depth. The biggest concern is access: parts of the area are restricted, and divers must stay clear of any prohibited zone or suspected ordnance.
