Best for advanced divers, 1-35m, shore entry, strong current.
Burghsluis at the Zeelandbrug is a demanding drift dive site featuring a mix of natural reef and artificial structures. The topography descends from the shallows to a maximum depth of 35 metres, with an average depth of 25 metres. Divers must manage strong tidal currents, which necessitate precise timing with the slack water window. Shore entry involves navigating surf and a shore break, and divers should remain aware of overhead boat traffic. Visibility fluctuates between 1 and 10 metres. Water temperatures range from 7C in winter to 20C in summer, requiring suitable thermal protection. Facilities include a dive shop, air fills, parking, toilets, showers, and changing rooms.

Time your entry precisely to the slack water window between tidal cycles, as the current here can run hard enough to make the dive unmanageable if you miss it. The on-site dive shop can give you a current read on tidal conditions before you kit up.
