About This Dive Spot
Kisternol is accessed via a shore entry, with parking available at Borrendamme on Boerenweg. Divers should prepare for a lengthy walk to reach the dive site. The underwater terrain is characterized by a variety of blocks and oysters. Due to its proximity to the storm surge barrier, divers may encounter strong currents, and the dive turnaround is typically brief. The site is particularly appealing to those interested in crustaceans, as it is home to North Sea crabs, lobsters, spider crabs, and occasionally Galathea crayfish.
