About this dive site

This dive site features the Shanfu Boat Wreck, located outside Shanfu Fishing Port. The wreck's hull is broken and scattered on the sandy bottom, consisting mainly of two sections. The bow, standing upright like a triangular cone, rests between sand and rock at a depth of 16m, with its top reaching about 13m. The site bottoms out at 21m on a sandy reef.

The main attraction for marine life at this wreck site is the presence of several large and small green turtles, which are almost always found living on the reef or the sand near the bow section. While not explicitly mentioned, the sandy bottom and scattered wreck pieces likely host various reef fish and smaller sand-dwelling creatures.

As a relatively shallow and accessible wreck, this site is ideal for beginner divers and freedivers. Freedivers can explore the wreck's top at 13m and search for turtles. The site offers good opportunities for wide-angle photography due to the wreck structure and large turtles. No specific best time to visit is provided, but typically dive conditions in Taiwan are good outside of typhoon season.
