About SMS König

A wreck dive. It goes down to 40 m. You get in from a boat. It suits experienced divers only, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces E: swell from the E reaches it, and wind from the W blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 13 km away. The sea is about 8°C in February, its coldest month (drysuit), and 13°C in August, its warmest (7 mm semi-dry or a drysuit). The town to stay in is Orphir. Within 5 km we also list 7 dive sites.
