Navigator Wreck
Enclosed artificial wreck in the Yasawa Islands for trained divers.

Boat-based wreck with rooms, wheelhouse access, and a maturing reef profile; best for trained scuba divers comfortable with enclosed spaces.
About Navigator Wreck
Navigator is a deliberately sunk Chinese long liner in Fiji's Yasawa Islands, built as an artificial reef for trained wreck divers. The wreck has enclosed rooms, a wheelhouse, and torchlit interior areas, so it feels more like a guided wreck tour than an open reef drift. Coral growth is starting to take hold and fish life is already building around the structure.
