About this dive site

This dive site features the sunken wreck of the tugboat 'Arabella', converted into a sailing ship, resting on a steep slope in a Mazurian lake. While the wreck itself lies at depths of 31-34 meters with its bow shallower, the maximum accessible depth for diving is stated at 27 meters. Divers can explore the superstructure and hold, experiencing a unique underwater atmosphere within this fascinating freshwater wreck.

Here, divers can often encounter large specimens of burbot, known for inhabiting cold, clean waters. Additionally, other fish species typical of the clean Mazurian lakes are frequently observed, contributing to the site's biodiversity.

The unique wreck exploration makes it a highlight for divers interested in freshwater wrecks. Freedivers can also enjoy exploring the shallower parts of the wreck due to the accessible depth range. Visiting during the warmer months typically offers more comfortable diving conditions in the lake, although specific details for animal sightings are not provided.
