Diving in the cold inner Oslofjord

[DCN]

This was our last dive of 2024, and while it may seem cold and extremely unforgiving (which it is) with water temperatures at +4-5C, it is actually quite fun! We had a good, long dive where we explored some nice walls. The inner Oslofjord is not the best place to go scuba diving if you want to see a lot of sea life, but since we are beginner divers it has been a good place to practice our skills in different conditions, sometimes with close to zero visibility.

As beginners, it's can be a little scary to explore new dive sites, but we are so happy we did!
Video is straight from our DJI Osmo Action 5's, which we use without a housing.

Nice, thanks for sharing! Do you guys generally not use lights, or did you just avoid it when filming these?

Glad you liked it! We do use lights, we have some cheap dive lights that we need to hold, but as very new divers we try not to task load ourselves too much by handling both a camera and a light at the same time.

Fair! I've mostly avoided task loading myself with a camera thus far.

Aha! How cool is that! She pointed at you while we were at the barge as you can see in the video, he didn't quite understand why, but he soon realised there was someone behind him

Another dive video from us, visibility is not very good, but we had a lot of fun nonetheless! We never thought we'd be cold water divers, but here we are, enjoying every second of it!
