Wreck Diver
		QTY:
What compels divers to seek out and explore the carcasses of dead ships? Once a pursuit stemmed solely from greed, now the attraction is mystery and the allure, as history unfolds. Wrecks now open up a new world to new divers that are prepared to spend time researching wrecks. Every year we head off overseas to dive on wrecks like the SS President Coolidge in Espirito Santo (Vanuatu), The Aaron Ward in the Solomon islands, Truk lagoon and its many wrecks as well as Palau and Saipan. Then closer to home- the wreck of the Yongala off Townsville along with the new ex HMAS Brisbane off Mooloolabah. Wreck diving is fun, adventurous and above all very interesting. History and mystery surround all wrecks and finding the answer can be half the fun of the dive.
