About Swanhild

A wreck dive. It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces N: swell from the N reaches it, and wind from the S blows out to sea. No dive centre within 50 km on the map: book a liveaboard or a boat from further off. The sea is about 4°C in February, its coldest month (drysuit), and 19°C in August, its warmest (7 mm wetsuit and hood). The town to stay in is Łeba.
