Western Australia
Greenup Wreck
This site is a great wreck dive for beginners, especially when you pick the right day as visibility can vary greatly from 2m to 10m. Visibility is the best after a few days of Easterly winds and low swells, i.e. in the middle of summer. But even if the visibility is not that great, there is still a lot to see. For example the large resident cuttlefish, juvenile crayfish, bottom feeding goatfish, and the usual schools of bullseyes, yellowtail and talma, to mention a few.
As far as the wreck goes, it is very open and easy to navigate. Note there is one area on the Eastern side of the wreck which can be penetrated. This area is quite cramped and hence caution and common sense should prevail if you decide to enter. |
