About This Dive Spot
The Ozone Shipwreck is situated approximately 50 meters offshore from Indented Head, Victoria, Australia. This retired paddle steamer was intentionally sunk in 1925 to create a breakwater. The wreck is accessible via a shore entry and offers a shallow dive experience. The cooler waters of Victoria support a variety of marine life, including sponges, crabs, hinge back shrimp, leatherjackets, whiting, flathead, and bream, making it an interesting site for divers.
