Kormoran
Shallow Tiran wreck with table-coral fringe and calm-window access.
Plan this as a weather-window boat wreck on the Tiran reef, with shallow water, a coral shelf, and a need for very flat seas.
About Kormoran
Kormoran is a shallow, weather-window wreck on the Tiran reef, where the broken hull sits beside a coral shelf and can even break the surface in the calmest conditions. It is best treated as a calm-sea boat dive for divers who want an easy wreck profile, clear photography lines, and table-coral scenery rather than a deep penetration site.
