Inchcape 1 is an artificial wreck dive off Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates. It is a small wreck, made from a sunken tugboat, and it lies at about 30 m. It is reached by boat.
The wreck is covered in soft corals and has impressive coral growth, which gives shelter to many small creatures. Lionfish, scorpionfish, morays and turtles are seen on it, and schools of batfish, trevally and barracuda circle around it.
Stronger currents are possible, and the site is recommended for advanced divers. The wreck is compact, which makes for a short but rewarding exploration. Carry a dive torch to light the crevices where smaller animals hide. The maximum depth is 30 m, and the wreck works as an artificial reef.
