Jordfall
Sheltered Bohuslan shore dive with close parking, toilets, and a silty crevice.
Practical Gullmarsfjorden shore diving with a protected entry, regulated parking, and cold-water conditions that reward relaxed buoyancy.
About Jordfall
Jordfall is a sheltered shore-entry dive site in Gullmarsfjorden, reached by parking close to the water and entering left of the piers. The dive begins in a shallow harbor start, then moves onto a silty bottom with rocky patches and a notable crevice along the fjord edge. It suits buoyancy-conscious divers who want cold-water life, easy logistics, and a protected west-coast backup when open-coast sites are rough.

Local Intel For Jordfall
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
A good shore dive for divers who can manage a shallow start that quickly deepens, with careful trim over silt and along the rocky edge.
Freediving
Only a shallow-start option for practice; the site is primarily a scuba shore dive because the bottom drops away quickly.
Snorkeling
Not a casual snorkel site, but the shallow harbor-side start can work for a short surface look before the bottom drops away.
