About This Dive Spot

Tyrrel Bay features a 100-foot (30-meter) ex-coastguard cutter that sank in 2018. The wreck has had its engines and doors removed, making it suitable for penetration and exploration by certified divers. Nearby, divers can find the remains of a concrete Cuban fishing boat, which is now covered in corals and sponges. The wreck is becoming increasingly populated with marine life, including glassy sweepers and a resident barracuda, enhancing the underwater experience.
