PACIFICOEVERETT - Lakshadweep

The *Pacificoeverett* is a monster of a wreck, a proper deep-water exploration for serious wreck heads. We’re talking a 135-metre cargo vessel that went down in '76, so it’s had plenty of time to really settle into its role as an artificial reef. You descend onto this huge, dark shape, and the first thing you notice is the sheer scale. It's not one of those little coastal barges; this is a serious ship, and it’s largely intact, which we love for the navigational challenge. The visibility here is often fantastic, which helps when you’re trying to get your bearings over such a large area. As you get closer, the details emerge: the massive cargo holds, gaping and dark, perfect for finding those big groupers and schools of snapper that swirl in the gloom. We've seen eagle rays cruising off the bow and barracuda schooling mid-water. The deck fittings, winches, and even some of the superstructure are still recognisable, encrusted with soft corals and sponges. It’s a dive that requires good buoyancy and a cool head, but the rewards are immense. The sheer size means you’ll need multiple dives to even begin to properly explore it.
