Virrholmarna
Sheltered boat dive with wall and slope.
Inner skargard boat dive with moderate depth, mild current, and strong macro life; best when exposed sites are too rough.
About Virrholmarna
Sheltered boat-access wall-and-slope dive in Sweden's inner skargard, used as a fallback when exposed Vaderoerna sites are too rough. The site combines moderate depth, calm water, and abundant macro life, with a rocky profile that rewards slow navigation and good buoyancy in cold-water conditions. Expect nudibranchs, crabs, lobsters, cod, and seaweed along the walls and slope.
