The Baltic Coast Wreck off the Hel Peninsula is a boat-accessible dive site ranging from 10 to 30 metres in depth. Divers encounter a wreck structure that presents entanglement risks, requiring appropriate wreck certification. Conditions are variable, with visibility fluctuating between 5 and 25 metres and moderate currents present. Water temperatures are cold, ranging from 4C in winter to 20C at the surface in summer, necessitating robust thermal protection such as a drysuit. Due to the potential for low visibility and cold water, divers should carry a torch and a surface marker buoy. The site is suitable for intermediate divers.
