About This Dive Spot
The Cement Wreck, also referred to as Captain Michel’s boat, is a small freighter that sank in 1939. It lies on a sandy bottom at a depth of 40 meters, with the shallower part of the wreck at 35 meters. Originally intended to transport cement bags, remnants of these bags can still be observed on the wreck. The site serves as a habitat for various marine species, including seabreams, lionfish, stingrays, and groupers, which are attracted to the rusting structure.
