No recent diver reports from the past 14 days

A report that passes the automatic checks will appear here with the dive date, diver’s display name, and temperatures at each depth.

Reports are automatically checked for plausible dates, depths, and temperatures. They are observations, not forecasts; confirm conditions before diving.

Before you arrive

Access notes

Contact ScubaLagos in advance and provide certification and recent-experience details. The displayed coordinate is a deliberately broad offshore area point for orientation only—not the wreck, an entry point, descent point, mooring or navigation waypoint.

Plan within your training

Conditions and hazards

Surface exposure, swell, current, surge, low visibility, boat traffic, fishing lines or nets, entanglement, sharp metal and unstable structure. Verify whether the published zero-metre upper bound reflects exposed or very shallow wreckage.

At the site

Facilities and support

ScubaLagos is listed by PADI as a current PADI Resort with two instructors, equipment rental, and equipment service/repair. Confirm boat support, cylinders/fills, weights, oxygen, communications and emergency arrangements for the scheduled outing.

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.
