Highlights

Operator-supported introductory wreck and artificial marine habitat

Before you arrive

Access notes

Book and verify certification, recent experience, equipment, gas, emergency oxygen, communications and evacuation arrangements directly with Yanica. The map coordinate is a deliberately broad offshore area point for display only—not the wreck, an entry point, mooring or navigation waypoint.

Plan within your training

Conditions and hazards

Open Atlantic swell, current, rapidly changing visibility, boat traffic, fishing gear, entanglement and sharp or unstable wreck structure. No penetration without appropriate overhead training and an operator-approved plan.

At the site

Facilities and support

Yanica is a current PADI Resort with an onsite training pool, classroom, parking, three PADI instructors and advertised equipment rental. Confirm boat, cylinders, fills, weights and emergency support before departure.

Independent resource notice

This record is a starting point for independent verification. Access, closures, moorings, weather, currents, depth, visibility, operator availability, and site conditions can change without notice. Confirm current information with the responsible operator, property owner, managing authority, or another qualified local source before planning or attempting a dive.
