TU 84
Why dive here
With 89+ marine species recorded in the area - including whitetip reef sharks, lionfish and napoleon wrasse - TU 84 offers some of Kalpitiya & Northwest's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 28-31°C, warmest March, April, May.
The TU 84 is a decent little fishing vessel wreck, lying at a comfortable 12 meters. It's not a massive wreck, but there’s enough structure for moray eels and lionfish to have made it home. We’ve spotted stingrays tucked into the sand nearby, too. It’s a nice easy dive, good for knocking the rust off your skills, or for divers who just enjoy poking around a relatively intact wreck without deep dives or strong currents. Just keep an eye out for fishing nets sometimes draped over parts of the deck.
