#1 - Muren
Norway, Austlandet
This is a nice spot close to Oslo. This wall was built to redirect ship traffic within range of the torpedo battery at Oscarsborg fortress. Worked very well at Blücher during WWII...
The wall is partly open for smaller ships, and you should be aware of the current when the tide is rising/falling. Divers have died here...
The spot is easy to find, and you'll have no problem parking.
The wall is grown with anemones, and occasionally, you may see lobsters.
Lots of Metridium senile and tru the summer it many Pollachius virens at nigh time and some Homarus gammarus.
Muren is also known as Jetéen.

#3 - Storsand
Norway, Austlandet
Storsand is a promontory buildt with large rocks where kelp and anemones thrive. You might even find ballan wrasse and lobsters in between the rocks. Make sure to bring your knife to cut them loose as they often get tangeled in fishing lines.
You will find the wreck of a old truck at 12 meters.
Easy access to the beach with a good sandy bottom that makes it perfect to do some pranks under water without swirling up too much silt. Hence popular place for training of new divers.
#4 - Fagertun Båstø
Norway, Austlandet
Go out from the beach and follow the left.
Here is a small tube wiring that can be worth noticing that you can find on the way back.
Here's to begin with mud, but you get to the more rocky bottom and up the mountain toward the surface the more left you go around the headland.
Follow a little further beyond, and you come to a low wall at 10 to 22 meters deep. follow the wall down to about 22 feet and hold the left through the canyon and follow the wall up on opposite side. You come to a big rock a little further up and where you can select to cross back or continue a little bit more along the "wall" before you cross and go back.
After you have crossed the "muern" as the d deep a period again but follow the depth you're on so then you'r coming to a plateau and then hold the "shallow" Side on your right side and you will get easy back to the beach again.
