About Matthew Wreck
Matthew Wreck is a shallow Bayahibe wreck reached by a short boat ride from the beach area. The wreck sits on a sand patch wrapped by coral, so the route stays easy to read while still giving you close views of the boat, the surrounding reef, and plenty of small life in the cracks.
