Westbout is a challenging drift dive located near the Zeelandbrug. The site features a reef structure with depths ranging from 10 to 30 metres. Due to powerful and variable currents, this location is strictly for advanced divers. Shore entry requires navigating surf and a shore break, and divers must be prepared for low visibility conditions between 1 and 10 metres. The site is situated 300 metres from the shore. Divers should time their entry around slack water and must be self-sufficient, as no facilities are confirmed on site. A surface marker buoy is essential for safety in these tidal waters.
