Best for intermediate divers, 5-10m, boat entry, strong current.
Naufragio Amazonas is a shipwreck site in Brazil situated in shallow depths between 5 and 10 metres. Due to the limited visibility of approximately 5 metres, divers experience an intimate view of the wreck structure rather than expansive vistas. The site is characterised by strong currents, requiring intermediate skill levels and precise buoyancy control. Divers should time their entry around slack water and consult local operators regarding current conditions. Water temperatures remain warm throughout the year, ranging from 27 to 29 degrees Celsius. Access to the wreck is exclusively by boat. Protective gear is recommended to prevent contact with sharp structures, and divers should remain vigilant for jellyfish and sharks.
