Strijenham is a shore dive in the Oosterschelde
Strijenham is a shore dive in the Oosterschelde, best suited to quiet tidal sessions and night diving. The route follows a dyke-side entry into a shallow ridge and overhanging structure, so the dive is more about reading the water and the terrain than covering distance. Plan around tide windows, and expect a cold-water macro dive with cuttlefish, squid, nudibranchs, and other Oosterschelde life.
