Nilgiri (Tug Wreck)

Depth: 23-32m
Certification Level: Advanced Open Water

The Nilgiri was a harbor tugboat that floundered in a storm in 1997 while assisting another ship. It now lies upside down at a depth of 32m with its twin propellers and rudders standing upright like parts of an alien spaceship. It is possible to swim under the wreck and explore the upside-down deck and bridge areas. A feature of this dive site is the large and curious lionfish that love posing for photographers.
