Holsandbukta is a Skogn beach dive with a long westward slope.
Holsandbukta is a beach-entry dive at Skogn with a shallow start and a long westward slope. The route begins in the nearshore zone, then drops gradually into sand and temperate bottom life before reaching the deeper end of the site. It suits divers who are comfortable with a cold-water shore dive and a longer swim back from the slope.

Scuba Diving
Depth increases from shallow water to 15 m and 30 m, with a stated maximum depth of 50 m.
Freediving
The shallow start can suit freedive practice, but the longer out-and-back and cold water make it a better fit for experienced cold-water freedivers.
Snorkeling
Snorkeling can work near the entry and shallow seaweed line, but the deeper slope and cold water keep this as a short, careful session.
