Azure-water quarry dive on southern Öland
Azure-water quarry dive on southern Öland
Grönhögen Stenbrott is a former limestone quarry on southern Öland with azure water, easy shore access and a beginner-friendly layout. The quarry mixes shallow plateaus, steel structures, bridges and a deeper south wall, so it feels varied without becoming technical. Plan it for warm-weather days if you want the clearest water and the easiest entry. Expect a casual freshwater dive with perch, crayfish and the odd amphibian around the quarry edges.
