    StandoutExceptional marine biodiversity

    The Nai Tai Beach Dredger is one of those surprisingly charming wrecks, a real treat for a shallow dive. It sits perfectly upright at 13 metres, making it an ideal spot for beginners or a relaxed second dive. We love the way the light filters through the superstructure, creating these cool shafts of light that dance on the sandy bottom. You can swim through a few of the larger sections, exploring the old engine room and the huge scoop bucket, which now serves as a hangout for a resident school of yellowtail barracuda. Look closely and you’ll find plenty of cleaner shrimp busy at work, and we often spot moray eels peeking out from behind the corroded plates. It’s not a dramatic drop, but the history of this old tin dredger, sitting here since the 80s, adds a nice layer to the dive. Our pick is an early morning dive before the day boats arrive; the visibility tends to be at its best.
