It is a truly fantastic experience diving into a ship or an underwater wreck, whether sunk on purpose as an artificial reef or the result of mishap, wrecks open fascinating windows to the past. Most divers find wrecked ships nearly irresistible because they’re intriguing to explore, exciting avenues of discovery, and usually teeming with aquatic life.
