    StandoutRich in charismatic marine life

    The San Juan No.2 is a shallow wreck, resting at just 5 metres, making it an ideal spot for newer divers or for a relaxed second dive. What's left of the hull has become home to a good number of local fish, often schooling around the broken superstructure. We've seen moray eels peeking from crevices and the occasional cuttlefish camouflaged against the metal. It’s a straightforward dive, perfect for getting comfortable around a wreck without deep water stress.
