    CharacterWreck dive

    The Christy Jeddah isn’t just some random pile of metal. This coaster, which went down decades ago, has become a proper home for sea creatures, and we love how the wreck itself is still so intact. Dropping onto the bridge, you'll feel the cool shift in temperature, and the whole structure feels solid beneath your fins. We’d suggest heading straight for the engine room; it's our favourite spot, often buzzing with glassfish so thick they shimmer like a silver cloud. You can still make out the machinery, now draped in soft corals and sponges. Look closely for nudibranchs crawling along the railings, and keep an eye out for larger snappers lurking in the deeper holds. This site is brilliant for divers who appreciate a wreck with a story, offering plenty of nooks and crannies to poke around in without getting too deep.

    Safety Notes

    Wreck site - avoid penetration without wreck diving certification. Watch for sharp metal and entanglement hazards.
