Rebocador Marte

The Rebocador Marte wreck has a real personality. We love how the tugboat sits upright on the sand, almost as if it’s still ready to sail, just… not quite. Dropping onto the deck at 16m, you can immediately feel the pull of exploring its three distinct levels. This isn't just a static structure; it’s become a living, breathing part of the ocean here. We find ourselves drawn to the pilothouse, imagining the old captain. You can fin through corridors where schools of Atlantic bumper now shimmer, their scales reflecting the light filtering in. Look closely in the darker corners and you’ll often spot a nurse shark snoozing under a deck plate, or a grumpy mutton snapper peering out from a porthole. The coral growth is respectable for its age, providing shelter for colourful parrotfish and the occasional orange filefish. We’ve seen barracudas cruising silently by, too. It’s a site that rewards multiple visits, revealing new details each time you go. For anyone who enjoys a proper wreck dive with plenty to see inside and out, Rebocador Marte is our pick.
