About Kodiak Queen (Wreck)
Kodiak Queen (Wreck) is a purpose-sunk BVI art reef off Virgin Gorda, with a shallow top, a deeper bow, and swim-throughs that make it rewarding for certified divers and, in calmer conditions, easy to appreciate from the surface. The wreck, kraken sculpture, and growing reef life give the site a clear route shape and plenty of photo targets without turning it into a technical penetration dive.
