    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    The 300, a non-dangerous wreck resting at 48m, offers a deeper dive experience in Sodwana. It's a structure that draws in various marine life, making it interesting for those keen on wreck exploration and observing resident species. We’d suggest this site for experienced divers comfortable with depth and looking for a slower, more deliberate exploration away from the shallower reefs. Visibility can vary, so check conditions.
