    Roca No. 11 is a shallow wreck, a lighter vessel sitting in just two metres of water near Mar del Plata. The wreck itself is quite broken up, but its remnants offer shelter for various small fish and crabs. It’s a good spot for very calm shallow dives, perhaps a first wreck experience for newer divers or an easy photography outing. We'd suggest checking local conditions, as visibility can vary here.
