TRY - Strytan & North Iceland
TRY offers a shallow wreck dive, sitting at just 5m, making it approachable for those new to wreck exploration. What’s left of the hull is scattered across the seabed, giving you plenty of smaller sections to peer into. We've seen various bottom-dwelling fish taking shelter among the twisted metal, making it a decent spot for macro photography if you're patient. It’s a good option for an easy second dive or for divers looking to practice their wreck penetration skills without significant depth.
