Kittiwake Shipwreck & Artificial Reef
The historic Ex-USS Kittiwake became a home to sponges, Goliath groupers, urchins and squirrelfish since its sinking in 2011. Over the years, the underwater wreck has blossomed into a beautiful and dynamic artificial reef — the perfect refuge for marine life. Divers of all skill levels, as well as snorkellers, explore the shipwreck with ease, as it is only 17 metres (55 feet) deep.
