The Norwegian campaign of 1940 put shipping of every flag on this coast and a great deal of it on the bottom. Cold, low-salinity water and no shipworm mean the wrecks stay in remarkable condition, which is the same reason the Baltic preserves its own. Anchorage: The Gulen skerries at the mouth of the Sognefjord are a sheltered maze of natural harbours, Norway has some 3,500 charted naturhavner and this is one of the best-used stretches. Hazards: Cold water year-round, depth, and tidal streams through the sounds. Drysuit diving with local guides. Mehr
