About Shipwreck Point Gzyy
Shipwreck Point Gzyy is a deep wreck site off Curaçao's Sea Aquarium area, centered on two tugboats, the SS Oranje Nassau remains, and a healthy fringing reef at the point. It is primarily a boat dive, though the reef edge has a limited shore option for divers who only want the shallower section. The site is best for experienced divers who can handle strong currents, variable visibility, and careful buoyancy around wreck and reef structure.
