Why dive here
With 391+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, humpback whales, octopuses and seahorses - ROSA offers some of Andros's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 24-31°C, warmest July, August, September.
The *Rosa* wreck in Andros is a small, easy dive, perfect for a relaxed afternoon. At just four meters, it’s a good spot for snorkelers or newer divers to get comfortable around a wreck. This eight-meter boat has become a home for all sorts of critters. We often see juvenile fish darting in and out of the hull and a good scattering of sponges and soft corals starting to take hold. It’s not a deep, dramatic wreck, but it’s a nice, simple explore, and we often find ourselves lingering a bit longer than planned, just watching the small inhabitants.
