LAGUNA P7

Laguna P7, she’s a proper dive. We’re talking about a former passenger ferry, now sitting upright on a sandy bottom at 13 metres. It’s not one of those ancient, barnacle-encrusted behemoths, but a relatively recent addition that’s rapidly become a fantastic artificial reef. We love how light filters through the remaining deck structures, creating these shimmering patterns as you swim through what would have been the passenger lounge. You can easily spend an entire dive exploring the wheelhouse, checking out the engine room access, and peeking into the various compartments. The wreck acts like a magnet for schooling fish. You’ll weave through clouds of yellow-stripe scad and barracudas often cruise by, making you feel like you’re part of a busy underwater highway. It’s an easy, relaxed dive, perfect for photographers wanting to practice their wreck composition or newer divers looking for a substantial, safe wreck to explore without deep penalties or strong currents. Our favourite time to visit is mid-morning, just after the first boats, when the light is good and the site isn't too busy.
