Best for intermediate divers, 30-35m, boat entry, mild current.
The Pericles Wreck is a deep-water site located in the eastern offshore waters of Qatar. Resting at depths between 30 and 35 metres, this wreck provides an overhead environment that requires advanced buoyancy control and careful navigation to avoid entanglement. Visibility at the site fluctuates between 5 and 15 metres, and currents can occasionally exceed mild conditions. Due to the depth and the nature of the structure, this site is suited for intermediate divers who can manage no-decompression limits during a typical 50-minute dive. The wreck supports a variety of marine life typical of the region's habitats, including reef fish and invertebrates.
