    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    The Ark is a yacht wreck resting at 27 metres in Singapore’s Southern Islands. This site is categorised as a dangerous wreck, meaning penetration isn't advised, but the exterior offers plenty to explore. It’s a good spot for advanced divers comfortable with depth, keen to investigate an artificial reef and the marine life finding shelter there. We’ve seen various fish species congregating around the structure, making it a decent macro hunting ground.
