Kurkenol

Also known as: Kulkenol · Kurkenol / Kulkenol

From the shore it means a walk of about a kilometre from the Zeelandbrug car park, which is why boats usually bring divers here. The stones of the cross arm of the jetty run far down into deep water, and the strong flow towards the fairway supports many species, especially sea slugs in spring. The site is dived at low water only; at high water divers risk being carried into the busy harbour mouth. Professional fishermen often work here, so staying close to the jetty is advised, and diving is discouraged when a southerly wind exceeds force four.
