SIN PAK POON 24 - Gulf of Thailand

The SIN PAK POON 24 wreck sits upright at 45 metres, an imposing steel structure now well-colonised. We've seen schools of barracuda circling above the main deck, with grouper often lurking in the shadowed holds. This site is for experienced wreck divers comfortable with depth and overhead environments; exploration inside is possible but demands skill and good planning given its "dangerous" classification. Expect a deep, dark dive with the chance to observe pelagics passing through.
