About Persia (Wreck)
Persia (Wreck) is Grenada's Atlantic-side cargo wreck for divers who want a deep, current-swept plan rather than a relaxed sightseeing stop. The upright hull already feels alive with lionfish and other early colonizers, so the dive rewards controlled buoyancy, patient positioning and clean ascent discipline. It suits advanced scuba divers who are comfortable working an offshore wreck in moving water.
