About Ocean Diver
Ocean Diver is a boat-reached wreck off Son Bou on sand and posidonia, with a medium-depth profile that suits patient wreck divers rather than casual sightseeing. The barge holds a lot of life and rewards slow, controlled circulation around the structure, where buoyancy, trim, and a careful search of the growth matter more than speed.
