This dive site features the Lektern wreck, a barge situated on a slope just north of the main pier at Svestad. The wreck lies with its long side parallel to the shore, offering a gradual descent. The top long side of the wreck is at 10 meters, while the bottom long side reaches about 18 meters at the gunwale and 22 meters at the seabed. Divers can easily navigate along the wreck's structure, exploring its various sections as it slopes deeper.
The Lektern wreck acts as a thriving artificial reef, attracting a variety of marine life. During summer, the site is bustling with a lot of fish around and above the wreck. In winter, it becomes a hotspot for several types of nudibranchs, making it excellent for macro enthusiasts. Lobsters are also frequently found lurking within the surrounding rock structures, referred to as 'stone weasel'.
The best time to visit Lektern depends on diver preferences; summer offers abundant fish activity, while winter is ideal for spotting diverse nudibranch species. This site is suitable for both scuba divers and freedivers due to its manageable depth profile. Snorkelers can also enjoy the shallower parts of the wreck and surrounding area. Cold water diving gear is recommended for comfort year-round.
