About This Dive Spot

Dijkval is named after its historical significance, where a dike has frequently experienced breaches. Nearby, the Caissons used for repairs can still be observed. Divers can explore the oyster reef, which is home to various crabs and galetheas that forage among the shells. The sandy areas surrounding the oyster bank exhibit less marine life compared to the reef itself.
