About Dolfijntje
Dolfijntje is a sheltered Grevelingen shore dive near Scharendijke with a very narrow legal dive line beside the harbour entrance. The site runs as a short out-and-back from the dike over a gentle sand slope, so navigation is simple but the usable water is tightly bounded. It is best for calm, shallow dives that stay close to shore and watch local traffic.
