There are still three anchors to be seen and an abundance of marine life. Ideal reef training in good conditions and first Scuba dives. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

This dive site is superb example of the fossilized rock formations. Situated
near the south western tip of the reef there are lots of clusters of reef
with plenty of sand gullies and lovely swim throughs.
Many cowries can be found here and as the gullies offer shelter from the
currents you will often find Raggies during the season and lots of shoaling
tropical fish. |

The Produce hit the Aliwal Shoal in August 1974 and drifted to
sink, inshore just off the shoal. Many years later, due to the rough seas that pound
this area, the hull split in half amid ships and eventually rolled onto it's
starboard side. Today the aft and front section of the wreck are scattered
on the ocean floor. Watch out for some massive Brindle Bass which hide in
the inside of the wreck. In the winter large Salmon can be found on the
wreck. |

The Nebo lies upside down in 18-27m of water. Her stern is fairly
intact but the bow and amidships is quite broken up. The propeller was
damaged in the grounding and the blade can still be seen on the Shoal in the
Pinnacles area. The stern is home to a large variety of fish and also has a
swim through below the propeller. The boilers are visible in the amidships
area as are the cargo of railway girders. There is a large debris field on
the port side. |
