Plongée à Nærøyfjorden — Norway
Nærøyfjorden is a UNESCO World Heritage fjord — the narrowest in Europe, with walls that plunge as dramatically below the waterline as the mountains rise above. The diving is cold and challenging, but the scenery — above and below — is truly unique. Very few divers come here, making every dive feel like an expedition.
