Why dive here
With 256+ marine species recorded in the area - including barracuda, dolphins, dwarf minke whales, humpback whales and manta rays - Stupendous offers some of Cabrits & Northern Coast's richest wreck diving. Water sits around 27°C.
Stupendous isn’t a deep dive, peaking at about four meters, but it’s a good little wreck for a relaxed exploration. What you’ll find here is a small, intact hull, and it’s a nice change of pace from some of the deeper, coral-heavy sites. It's not a massive freighter, more like a decent-sized boat, and it’s become a home for all sorts of reef fish. Look for the parrotfish nibbling algae off the metal, and we’ve often seen sergeant majors darting in and out of the small openings. It’s ideal for newer divers or anyone who fancies a leisurely second dive.
