About Anna Jacoba Polder
Anna Jacoba Polder is a tide-driven shore dive in the Oosterschelde with a former-ferry-harbor entry, mussel-farm structure, and a second option outside the harbor arm. The site rewards careful tide planning with dense growth and a lot of small life, from nudibranchs and seahorses to crabs, cuttlefish, and other temperate species. It is an interesting but demanding dive, with a compact usable area and little room for casual drift.
