Imbetiba Wreck is a very shallow historic steamship wreck off Praia Grande, where moving sand can expose or partly bury the hull from one tide cycle to the next. It is usually approached as a calm-weather snorkel or easy scuba stop, with broken structure, schooling fish, and occasional moray sightings concentrated around the exposed sections.
