Dive-site story
Located along the Grevelingenmeer dike, Dreischor Frans Kokrif is one of the most frequented dive spots in Zeeland. The site features an artificial reef composed of perforated concrete blocks and reef balls placed in memory of local dive pioneer Frans Kok. Divers descend along a sloping silt-and-shell bottom to find these structures heavily colonized by tunicates, sponges, and anemones.

Abundant macro subjects including nudibranchs and skeleton shrimp among the hydroids
