Notes : |
This is a very good wreck which is only really diveable at slack water. The hull is rather twisted so it is possible to see under/into various other parts even though it is inverted. The surrounding sea bed is covered in soft-corals and dead mans fingers and the wreck itself is home to a multitude of fish. I believe from other people that there is a place where there is a dip in the sea bed under the wreck big enough for divers to pass through although I never saw this myself. It is easy to locate and is definately worth a dive.
