About this site
This wreck dive sits in Port Stephens, resting at 30 meters. The intact steel hull attracts schools of trevally, kingfish, and bull rays. Strong currents bring pelagics, while the superstructure hosts colorful sponges and soft corals. Visibility varies but often exceeds 15 meters. Advanced divers explore cabins and holds, with occasional grey nurse shark sightings. The wreck's depth and currents demand good buoyancy control. Nearby sandy patches reveal wobbegongs and stingrays. Best dived on slack tide for calmer conditions.
