Best for intermediate divers, 10-15m, shore entry, moderate current.
Duikgroep '84 is an artificial reef site in the Oosterschelde, Netherlands, offering depths between 10 and 15 metres. This shore-entry location is suited for intermediate divers comfortable with moderate currents and low visibility, which typically ranges from 1 to 4 metres. The site features hard structures that support temperate reef life. Divers should be prepared for a shore break upon entry and remain vigilant regarding potential entanglement hazards and sharp surfaces. Given the current and visibility conditions, the use of a surface marker buoy is recommended. Tidal tables should be consulted to plan dives around slack water, as currents can shift rapidly.
