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.

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.

Beneath the surface, you have 2 plateaus, one at 3-4m with rock bottom that you can sit on without suspended Especially a lot and a 9-10m with seaweed / clay bottom which are suspended a lot if you sit down.
From the entry point you can choose to swim left or right. To the left there is a wreck of an old customs cruiser named "Queen of Spades" which "accidentally" fall under tow. To find the wreck, so go down to the second plateau, at the exercise bike, giraffe and the road sign and follow the edge of the south (on your left side) for about 10min and you swim straight for it.
ön is also known as Limhamn.
