Deep artificial-reef wreck for experienced divers.
Deep artificial-reef wreck for experienced divers.
Deep artificial-reef wreck on a fishing boat, best treated as an advanced boat dive with rare visits and occasional turtle sightings. The wreck is small but sits deep enough that planning, buoyancy control, and ascent discipline matter more than sightseeing time, and current listings still point to a qualified operator rather than a casual excursion. Confirm operator availability before booking.
