About Fisherman Wreck
Fisherman Wreck is a small upright fishing-boat wreck off Tenggol Island that gives newer wreck divers an approachable first look at structure diving without a very deep profile. The wreck is usually chosen for its easy recreational depth, sheltering fish life, and photogenic marine growth rather than for penetration-style wreck exploration.
