Independent guide covering Svestad Brygge access, site mix, and seasonal visibility.
Deep, shore-accessed wreck near a well-equipped Oslofjord dive center, best suited to technical teams in cold-water gear.
About Hobby
Hobby is an intentionally sunk fishing boat wreck outside Svestad pier. It rests upright on its keel in cold Oslofjord water and is best treated as a technical wreck dive: a deep profile, clear wreck structure, and cold-water marine life for qualified teams. The site sits in a well-supported fjord dive area, so the logistics are shore-based even though the wreck itself is firmly in the deep end.
