About this dive site

This dive site, Staberhuk, located in the southeast of Fehmarn, Germany, is celebrated as a great and versatile spot for underwater exploration. Divers should exercise caution during entry and exit due to slippery rocks, but once submerged, the site offers an accessible and rewarding experience. Its shallow depths make it easy to navigate, primarily following the natural topography of the seabed adorned with various plant life.

The marine life here is remarkably rich, especially for smaller creatures. Divers can expect to encounter numerous crabs, delicate sea needles, flat plaice, vibrant starfish, small schooling fish, bottom-dwelling gobies, and various types of shrimps, all thriving amongst the abundant underwater vegetation.

The best time to visit is typically during the warmer months when water temperatures are more comfortable and marine activity is high. This site is particularly well-suited for both snorkeling and freediving due to its maximum depth of 5 meters and excellent opportunities for macro photography. Divers should bring appropriate cold water gear and be mindful of the slippery shore.
