Colijnsplaat Oostnol
Colijnsplaat Oostnol: tide-timed shore dive for sand life
Shore entry beside the pier and dike, with a sandy bottom, strong current and poor-visibility risk; best for careful divers who time the tide.
About Colijnsplaat Oostnol
Colijnsplaat Oostnol is a shore dive beside the dike and pier at Colijnsplaat, where you walk out to the end of the strekdam and follow the line back toward shore. The bottom is mostly sand and silt, so the site is more about low-lying sand-dwellers and patient bottom scanning than about reef structure or color. It is sensitive to bad weather and current, with the best dives usually timed to favorable tide windows.
