St George Wreck is a boat-access Bayahibe wreck with a deep reef profile.
St George Wreck is a boat-access artificial reef off Bayahibe with a tall wreck profile that rises toward shallower water and drops into deeper sections below. The wreck is covered in coral and sponge growth and usually draws dense schools of tropical fish, barracuda, morays, sea horses, crustaceans, and other Caribbean reef life.
