Deep Dakar wreck for advanced scuba and wreck training.
Navarro is a Dakar wreck dive for advanced scuba divers, with a compact wreck lying on its side and a wide corridor that makes it useful for wreck training. The dive is boat-based and feels like a proper overhead route rather than an easy reef cruise. Expect a deep, conservative profile with schooling fish around the structure and plan your gas and buoyancy carefully.
