About Avion Cessna 188
Avion Cessna 188 is a boat-access wreck dive in Port-Louis, with a small aircraft resting on the reef edge and now covered in coral growth and reef life. The wreck sits upright on a shallow-to-moderate profile and functions as shelter for a lively mix of fish around the coral boundary. It is a straightforward guided wreck stop rather than a deep technical dive, but buoyancy and careful finning still matter around the wreck and reef edge.
