About This Dive Spot

The San Choi Wreck consists of three fishing vessels that were intentionally sunk in 2018 to create an artificial reef. Located at a depth of 18 meters, the site is now home to a diverse array of marine life, with schools of fish so abundant that they significantly reduce sunlight penetration. This wreck serves as a cleaning station, where various cleaner pipefish and cleaner shrimps can be found attending to the fish. Notable species observed in the area include Yellowtail Barracuda, Fusiliers, numerous Stingrays, Lionfish, Bearded Scorpionfish, Bamboo Sharks, Yellow Boxfish, and Toothpony.
