Get in

The wreck is located about a 2.2km boat ride away from the harbour slipway at Hout Bay. When diving, it is important to be cautious of boat traffic in the area. Dive boats usually drop a shotline with a large marker buoy, which indicates the best place to descend and ascend. This also alerts passing boats to the presence of divers and ensures they keep clear.]
