BURGHSLUIS OOSTBOUT 45B
Nederland, Zeeland
Burghsluis Oostbout, like Burghsluis West, is a dive site with lots of North Sea life and species special to the Oosterschelde. Admittedly, the unique location of this site also causes strong currents and limited visibility. Dive from the stairs in a south-westerly direction to the tip of the pier for the most beautiful route. Dive over the wall of stones and oyster beds teeming with life, culminating in a sandy bottom where you'll encounter silt anemones and carnations. Dive here with enough experience at low tide and always bring a strong dive light.
Particulars
