    Overseas 6 is less of a deep exploration and more of a quick, fun jaunt in the shallows. This barge sits upright at a modest 11 metres, making it an ideal choice for newer divers, or those looking for a relaxed multi-dive day. What we love about Overseas 6 is how accessible it feels; you can swim right over the top, peering into the open holds where light streams through, illuminating schools of snapper darting in and out of the shadows. Our favourite time to visit is on a sunny afternoon when the light really punches through the water column, making the metal gleam and highlighting the soft corals that have started to fuzz the deck. It's a proper little fish magnet, too. Keep an eye out for the resident moray eels peeking from crevices, and we often spot cuttlefish drifting lazily past the bow. It’s a gentle introduction to wreck diving, letting you get a feel for navigation around a man-made structure without any of the deeper challenges.
