Mida Wreck

The Mida wreck is an ex-shrimp trawler. Because the wreck is close to the mouth of the salt water Mida Creek there are substantial tidal water movements around the wreck so dives can only take place at high neap tides. It is a small (20+ metres), steel hulled trawler, which lies on its side in sand at a depth of approximately 14 metres - making this an ideal dive for those who have never visited a wreck before.

The boat went down in about 1988, and it is interesting to note the coral growth and the marine life that has established itself here since it sank. You will see snappers, sweepers, leaf fish, lobster, scorpion fish, stone fish, octopus etc. It is also possible to see large grouper lurking in the old refrigeration rooms. The wreck is not suitable for penetration.
