The Zijpe channel off Bruinisse, where the Zijpe meets the Krammer, a boat dive site. The map is sparse: it shows only the shoreline, the channel buoys and mussel plots from OpenStreetMap and the site position as the boat entry. The strong tidal current is from the site description; dive at slack water only.

The Zijpe is the tidal channel between Schouwen-Duiveland and Sint Philipsland, at Bruinisse. It connects the Oosterschelde to the Krammer-Volkerak and it runs fast — this is a slack-water dive with a tight window, and the reward is the life that current-swept hard substrate supports.
Three dives, July 2021 to August 2023, to 12.7 m.
