Why dive here
Alice B Wreck is a wreck dive in Tyre, Lebanon.
The Alice B Wreck off Tyre isn't just another sunken hull; it's a genuine historical experience, and that's why we love it. This isn’t a pristine, intact ship, but rather a scatter of fascinating debris, remnants of a bygone era, lying on a sandy seabed. What we truly appreciate about the Alice B is its story – a merchant vessel that found its end here, now colonised by the sea. You’ll find sturdy metal plates and twisted girders providing shelter for scorpionfish, their camouflage almost perfect against the rust-red. Schools of juvenile snapper often mill around the larger sections, creating a shimmering curtain. Our favourite time to dive here is late morning, when the sun penetrates the relatively shallow depths, illuminating the ghostly shapes. It’s a dive that rewards slow exploration, peering into every crevice for moray eels or the occasional octopus. The Alice B isn't about grand scale, it’s about intimate discovery and a tangible connection to history, making it ideal for those who prefer an archaeological approach to their wreck diving.

Descending onto the Alice B is a step into the unknown, where the only clues to its past are the silent, encrusted remains on the seabed.
