About Drymades Beach - MIG-21 wreck

Drymades Beach - MIG-21 wreck is a shore-access wreck dive off Drymades Beach, where a preserved MIG-21 sits just offshore and has become an artificial reef with bass, grouper, lobsters, and other small life. Local operators run guided entries from the beach, so the site works best as a managed wreck dive rather than a casual swim-out. Calm mornings give the easiest approach; wind-driven chop is the main condition to watch.
