Dive-site story
Located along the narrow waters of the Little Belt, Ammoniakhavnen offers one of the most dynamic shore dives in Denmark. The seabed drops away over clay ridges, stony slopes, and scattered boulders before descending into the channel floor. Rich tidal flows bring nutrients that feed dense invertebrate communities, making macro life and seasonal fish prolific throughout the sloping terrain.
Steep clay wall formations and boulder fields hosting diverse invertebrate life
Frequent encounters with lumpsuckers, butterfish, and shoaling Atlantic cod
Night diving opportunities where crabs, sea anemones, and flatfish become highly active
Location
Use the map to plan with your operator and confirm the exact entry point on the day.
Seasonality
Spring brings breeding lumpfish into the shallows, while summer and early autumn provide warmer water and active fish life.
