We have one of our best land dives straight from the quay at NORD&NE. All our dive sites are within 1-7 minutes by boat or car. We are diving from both land and from a boat. How demanding the diving is depends on the lunar phase, and how big the difference is at high tide on the day in question. So to dive with us in the Saltstraumen itself, you must be a certified dry suit diver, and master the dry suit well., And preferably be AOW-certified. The strong currents and steep walls make it demanding to dive here. Study beautiful nudibranches or colorful anemones, and watch kelp forests dance in the streams. Enjoy the sight of a huge halibut that gracefully sails through the water. Here you can experience large schools of pollock, and get in close contact with a large cod that graze in the kelp forest. We need at least 2 people to arrange a trip, and we bring a maximum of 8 in the boat.ĭiving in Saltstraumen with its unique marine life, drift dives and cold water You need to have some basic swimming experience.Ĭontact us to book snorkeling.

During the briefing you get information about how the equipment is used, techniques for snorkeling, hand signals, how to get in and out of the boat, safety and a little about the wildlife you will see during snorkeling. But you must bring warm clothes to wear under the dry suit, such as a layer of wool or two. We are careful to choose snorkeling places that do not take us out in the big whirlpools, ship lanes or the strongest currents.Įverything you need is included in the price dry suit, fins, mask, snorkel, hood and gloves. We follow the shoreline, where you can see the seaweed fluttering in the current below you, schools of fish, colourful anemones and if you are lucky, a wolffish.
