About this dive site

This dive site, Skår, offers convenient shore access with parking situated close to the water. Divers can easily enter the water either by the distinctive red boathouse or from the stony beach located to the right. While navigating the site, especially when exploring further to the right, divers must remain vigilant and aware of potential ferry traffic in the area.

Underwater, Skår boasts a good variety of interesting marine life typical for the region. Divers frequently encounter vibrant dead man's fingers, elusive lobsters, common whelks, and edible crabs. The site is also home to various fish species, including ling, hooknose, and dragonett, offering opportunities for macro photography and observing local biodiversity.

The best time to visit Skår for diving is generally during the warmer summer and autumn months when water temperatures are more favorable and marine activity is often at its peak. Given its accessible depths, the site is well-suited for both snorkeling and freediving. All divers are advised to exercise particular caution regarding boat traffic, especially ferries, to ensure a safe diving experience.
