About this dive site

This dive site features the Andrea, a former fishing boat purposefully sunk after being cleaned, now resting in the renowned 'Ship Cemetery' area. The wreck lies at 27 meters deep, nestled on a muddy-sandy bottom, flanked by small stone cliffs. Dives typically commence by exploring the remains of the ship’s frames, offering a historical journey through its final resting place.

The Andrea wreck is a haven for diverse marine macro life. Divers can expect to encounter bea Lobsters, delicate santiaguiños, various heterobranchia (nudibranchs), vibrant sea squirts, and unique violet hedgehogs. The site is also home to friendly serranos and fascinating deep stars, making it a rich environment for observation.

While specific seasonal highlights are not provided, the consistent presence of abundant small marine life makes Andrea an excellent year-round destination for macro photography enthusiasts. Its accessible average depth of 12 meters, with a maximum of 25 meters, also makes it suitable for recreational freedivers seeking an interesting structure to explore.
