Shipwreck -Cargo Wreck

The Cargo Wreck (Pecheur Breton) is one of Colombo’s most captivating and accessible wreck dives, located just 5.65 km offshore with a short 15-minute boat ride. Resting at a depth of 18 to 32 meters, this 88-meter-long vessel sank on July 1, 1994, reportedly due to a leak in one of its hatches. Today, it serves as a vibrant artificial reef teeming with marine life, including schools of fusiliers, lionfish, and stonefish. The wreck offers easy exploration with large swim-throughs, making it suitable for Advanced Open Water divers and Nitrox (Nx32) users. Divers can navigate fascinating sections such as the holds, bridge, and caverns beneath the starboard bow, each now adorned with corals and sponges. this site is renowned for its excellent visibility, scenic underwater landscapes, and abundant sea life, providing an unforgettable diving experience for photographers and wreck enthusiasts alike.
