Alexandria

Many years ago, the majority of fishing boats were constructed from wood. In the 1980s, the Alexandria, a wooden fisher boat, met its fate and now rests as a wreck beneath the waters. While the main beams of the vessel remain intact, the smaller wooden components have succumbed to the relentless power of the sea.

Exploring the sandy bottom surrounding the wreck, you'll encounter an assortment of fascinating marine creatures such as flounders and sand eels. Take a moment to observe snappers, groupers, and if you're lucky, perhaps even catch a glimpse of a graceful sea horse.
