Trykkerdammen is also known as PADI-Vraget.

Trykkerdammen

The bottom slowly deepens to about 5-6 meters - then follows a steeper slope down to 10 meters. Twin is found by following the bottom in direction 90 deg until a depth of around 10 meters is reached. Then turn directly north and follow a depth of 10-11 meters.

The small wreck of Twin is one of the most popular diving targets of Denmark. The wreck is 9.6 meters long and 3.5 meters wide with the bow at 10 deg. NNE. The deck is slanted towards the beach. Unfortunately the wreck is now in severe decay and is found in an ever more collapsed state.

Just recently two more small wrecks have appeared - one very close to Twin - the other somewhat south of Twin!

Due to the low salinity of the sea water - the wreck is mostly covered with mussels and starfish and sporting a large school of goldsinnies. It is not uncommon to see various kinds of flounders as well as cod and the occasional lumpsucker.

The challenge of Twin itself is to find it! Navigational skill is required - especially on night dives - for which Twin also provides a fine scene.

If you desire a glimpse of the deeper and more salinity craving life of Øresund (the sound that separates Denmark from Sweden) - you can continue directly east from Twin and reach deeper than 20 meters. Here you can find large whelks, nudibranchs and various kinds of sea anemones.

You enter water at the Trykkerdammen locality, use the stairs down from the parking space at Faergevej, just south of Elsinore Ferry Harbour.

Twin is also known as PADI wreck.

Twin

Line ship sank Zealand 2.4.1801. There are now tied and some frames back in the very scrub oak. Ballast at the bottom as you can look into.

Approximately 800 m north of Humlebæk yacht harbour and 600 m from the beach. It is possible to swim to the wreck from the beach - but not advisable.  The presence of just a little current can make the finding of the wreck difficult – not to mention the swim back.  Boat support is the preferred mode for diving "Sjælland"

Ceylon af Bergkvara

Generally recognized as the best dive site within a couple of hours drive/sailing of Copenhagen.

It is basically a long granite mountain jutting straight into several kilometers into the sea. It is oriented east-west, so unless the wind is very unfavorable, it is nearly always possible to find a sheltered place to dive.

Its a rocky outcropping "Kullen" going into the sea between Helsingborg and Ängelholm. Its a national park, and the closest setlement is Mölle.

Robert SS is a 0-star rated scuba dive and snorkel destination in Sweden, Oresund Strait which is accessible from shore based on 0 ratings.

Robert SS

Shore dive with visibility varying between low and medium. The current is generally negligible.

Diving the rocky reef is the choice during the day. The reef is best reached by boat, unless you like a long surface swim. Here there's plenty of kelp, as well as various fish , molluscs, and crustians hidden away. Since Öresund is brackish water, you will also pass through the murky thermacline on this dive.

During the night, the flat sandy bits are the place to go. You'll see plenty of buttom-dwelling fish, as well as free swimming cod and eel. A very good place for underwater photography :-)

Ven Island. Just walk straight in from the stony beach.

Livlig

Approx. 150 m from the shoreline there's a stone reef of big (1-3m) boulders running in parallel to the shoreline. Swim along the reef and look between the stones. You will experience tons of crabs, different kinds of soles and the occasional cod. 

The site is excellent for night dives and at night time the site has quite a few eels.

Park your car at the far end of the large parking lot and get into your gear. Walk across the beach and enter the water just below your car. Wade and swim approx. 100 m course 270 (45 degree (left) angle to the shoreline) until you are past the two sand banks. Once beyond the sand banks descend and swim course 270 until you hit the stone reef.
