Douglas Bay Wreck
About this Dive Site
Description
The Douglas Bay Wreck provides an opportunity to explore the remnants of a sunken vessel, now a thriving artificial reef. Marine life has colonized the structure, creating a habitat for schools of fish, conger eels, and various crustaceans. This site offers a chance to witness the reclamation of man-made structures by the natural underwater world.
