About this site
The Cessna Wreck sits off New Providence in the Bahamas, in shallow water not far from Nassau. It rests on a sand and wreck bottom at a max depth of around 7.6 metres, making it a beginner dive well suited to novice divers and those working on buoyancy skills. Small aircraft wrecks like this one are a recurring feature of dive sites in this part of the Bahamas, often used as easy, shallow attractions for local operators. Divers have reported barracuda, eagle rays, nurse sharks, and snapper around the site, though sightings vary from trip to trip.
