Scuba Diving

Some parts of the Norwegian coast are famous for their underwater environment. Because of the Gulf Stream, the coast is relatively mild and scuba diving is possible year-round. Adventurous visitors can and do dive in the colder months, and even live to tell about it.

Excellent diving centers provide scuba-diving trips and instruction. Divers who enjoy harpooning can catch their own dinners, with many kinds of fish to choose from. The conditions for submarine photography are generally good, with underwater visibility of 9m to 30m (30-98 ft.). There are a number of shipwrecks along Norway's extensive coastline and fjords. Diving information is available from Dykkernett (tel. 22-02-31-39; www.dykkernett.no).
