About This Dive Spot
Högsma Stenbrott, also known as Björkeröd quarry, measures approximately 25 meters wide and 150 meters long, reaching depths of about 55 meters. The quarry is characterized by dark Diabas stone, which causes light to diminish significantly beyond 20 meters. Divers should exercise caution when navigating near the iron grids along the sides, as these serve as a collapse barrier. The site is home to various aquatic life, including Perch and Crayfish. Notably, the presence of submerged vegetation such as trees, branches, and bushes contributes to the unique ambiance of the dive site.
