Fehmarn, Presen is a shallow Baltic shore dive with easy access.
Fehmarn, Presen is a shallow Baltic shore dive on the island's east coast, reached by a short walk over the dike from the parking area. The site is simple to navigate but gets less forgiving once current and cold water build, so it suits beginner-to-intermediate divers who are comfortable in cooler conditions. Flatfish, crabs, and other small Baltic life make it a good low-key macro outing.

Scuba Diving
A shallow scuba dive site with depths around 3–6 m.
Freediving
The shallow shore profile can work for freediving in calm conditions, but current and cold water make it a better choice for experienced breath-hold divers.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling is possible in calm weather thanks to the shallow profile, but it is not a casual warm-water snorkel; cold water and current need respect.
