About Ostermade Pier
Ostermade Pier is a shallow Baltic shore dive over sandy bottom, large stones, and broad seagrass meadows. It is a relaxed site for beginners and casual shore entries, with most of the interest coming from crabs, small animals, and the seasonal lumpfish that move through in spring. The site works best as an easy, low-stress outing when the water is settled and the light is good.
