Boat-required west-coast wall dive with ravines.
Boat-required west-coast wall dive with ravines.
Hönö Både is a boat-required west-coast Sweden wall dive with ravines, cracks, and an almost vertical drop that rewards careful navigation. The route wraps around the wall and back up the east side, so a compass matters as much as depth. It is a weather-sensitive site with cold water and modest visibility, and the rocky habitat draws lobsters, crabs, fish, and large sea urchins rather than tropical-style scenery.

Scuba Diving
A navigation-heavy wall dive best suited to experienced divers who are comfortable with cold water, depth, and route-finding.
Freediving
Not a good freedive target because the route is navigation-heavy and the interesting part of the site sits beyond shallow water.
Snorkeling
Not a practical snorkel site; the wall and ravines sit beyond the shallow edge.
