Tangalooma Wrecks make a good
drift
dive near the top of the tide. We swam on the surface across the sheltered water
where yachts anchor. Then we drifted leisurely through the wrecks
and enjoyed the fish life, except for one or two stonefish! We
penetrated the old “Morwong” suction dredge using our torches to light
the long tunnel that slopes up from between the twin propellers. The interior is
well lit and it is easy to follow the passageway and emerge over the port rail.
This old dredge has been the first wreck penetration dive for many people. |
