Protected Kiel Fjord shore dive with a flat beach entry, shallow seagrass, and a tunnel route.
About Strande
Strande is a sheltered Baltic shore dive in the Kiel Fjord with a flat sandy entry, seagrass, and stone features that lead toward the harbor side and the tunnel route. It suits beginner planning but still rewards careful buoyancy, a surface marker in summer, and attention to wind, boat traffic, and changing visibility. The sheltered bay also makes it a comfortable local site for short, relaxed dives.
