About St Christopher Wreck

The St Christopher was an old cargo vessel which was later converted into a liveboard diving vessel. She sank several years ago after her crew failed to resolve a dispute with her. Today she rests in 24 meters of water and is easily accessible by all level divers. She makes a beautiful wreck dive and attracts large amounts of marine life and corals. Here you can also explore several surrounding reefs.

Dive Site Hazards

  • Hidden Depth Variations — Complex reef topography can conceal depth changes, leading to unintended profile variations.

  • Distraction from Marine Activity — High fish activity can distract divers and delay depth or gas awareness.

  • Rapid Surge Direction Changes — Surge near reef structures can reverse direction quickly, pushing divers sideways into unexpected areas.

  • Deceptive Entry Openings — Openings may become restrictive inside due to angle, collapse, or corrosion.

  • Surge-Induced Internal Silt Shift — Internal surge can move silt and debris without direct contact.

  • Partial Overhead Environment — Many wrecks limit direct ascent even without full penetration.

  • Fine Rust Particle Silt-Out — Disturbed rust particles can rapidly reduce visibility.
