From SportDiver Planet’s 50 Greatest Dives, #46, A simple navigational error likely caused this German steamship to run straight into the island of Brattholmen in 1940. Though it’s a little off the beaten track, the Frankenwald is well worth seeking out. Almost entirely intact, it’s tucked into a narrow fjord, which provides enough shelter for it to be dived in most conditions. Visibility is usually excellent, although the depth and the latitude mean that it can be quite dark. Frankenwald sits in 130 feet of cold water, best suited for exploration over several dives and by experienced divers. — AM
