This 60 meter marine tin ore processing vessel came to rest 20 meters
below the surface in 1984
and has since attracted a
wealth of marine life and
soft coral. The wreck is
located around 12 nautical
miles from Tap Lamu pier so
is quite close to shore.
Often the schools of fish
are so dense above the wreck
that you'll have trouble
spotting it on descent.
There are yellow snapper,
trevally, barracuda and
batfish all in abundance
here. On the wreck itself
are lionfish, scorpionfish
and many types of moray eel,
there may also be a large
marble stingray hiding
beneath the structure.
Penetration is not possible
due to the age of the wreck
and the amount of coral
growth on it, two dives are
usually done to fully
explore the site.
