CharacterWreck dive · max 7m

The 245 C wreck sits shallow at 7 meters, making it an accessible dive in Mar del Plata for those comfortable with overhead environments. What remains of the vessel has become a home for various fish, often sheltering in the broken hull plates. While it's a dangerous wreck, meaning parts might be unstable, its depth suits newer wreck divers looking to explore a real piece of history. Visibility can be hit or miss, but on a good day, the light filters beautifully through the structure.
