Aldebaran Wreck is a purpose-sunk fishing boat off Mahé that sits upright on sand and is best for experienced divers who want a clean wreck profile and dense fish life around the structure. The wreck is the whole attraction here: a proper boat dive with a lot of life on and around the steel, not a casual reef stop.
