About Ricardo (Wreck)

Ricardo (Wreck) is a boat-access cargo wreck off Djerba with a moderate-depth profile and enough structure to reward slow, deliberate exploration. The wreck carries fish life around the hull and scattered objects, so the dive works best when you keep the profile controlled and the route tidy. It is a guide-led offshore wreck day rather than a casual shallow excursion, and the wreck's depth makes buoyancy and gas discipline more important than speed.
