About Maraldi
Maraldi is a very shallow Salvador wreck beside the lighthouse, with a central boiler, scattered wreckage, and a small overhead feature that gives the route its shape. It is a beginner-friendly artificial reef dive with easy access and a solid mix of tropical fish and invertebrates. The site is best treated as a calm, controlled wreck tour rather than a place to push speed or ignore the tide.
