About This Dive Spot
Buccaneer Molinere Bay features a sailing yacht wreck that was intentionally sunk in the early 1980s to create an artificial reef. The wreck lies on its starboard side, with the deck planking removed but structural supports remaining, allowing for swim-through opportunities for certified divers. The site is adorned with coral growth and serves as a habitat for schools of baitfish, along with sightings of invasive lionfish. Divers may also encounter barracuda and French angelfish in the area.
