The Avocet is a 75-metre long dredge sunk as an artificial reef in 1991. Located 34 kilometres from shore, this wreck site features depths ranging from 21 to 37 metres, with an average depth of 30 metres. Hurricane activity has removed and scattered the upper structure of the vessel. Due to the depth and the presence of an overhead environment, this site is suitable for advanced divers only. Access is by boat, and divers should be prepared for moderate currents and visibility between 18 and 21 metres. The site presents hazards including entanglement risks and deep water conditions.
