Shanfu Boat Wreck 杉福破沈船 - Kenting National Park
The Shanfu Wreck sits at 21 metres, an old fishing boat broken into several large sections. It’s a good spot for newer divers to get a feel for wreck diving, as the current is usually mild and penetration isn’t an option. Look for the resident lionfish tucked into the metal plates and small nudibranchs on the encrusting corals that have started to colonise the wreck's surfaces. It's a relaxed dive, usually completed in under 40 minutes.
