A Recife-area boat operator is the practical access model for this offshore wreck.
Servemar X is a compact artificial tug off Boa Viagem, upright and easy to read once you arrive on the wreck, with enough structure to make it feel like a true wreck dive without the extreme depth of Pernambuco's technical sites. What elevates the site is the amount of life repeatedly associated with it in Recife coverage: schooling fish around the hull, regular rays, and nurse sharks using the wreck as shelter. The site is still fully offshore and current can be part of the dive, so Servemar X works best as a controlled boat drop with a clean descent, quick orientation on the wreck, and an organized pickup. For divers who like fishy artificial reefs and want a Recife wreck that is active underwater without becoming a technical commitment, Servemar X hits a practical middle ground.
