About Aeolus (Wrack)

A wreck dive. It goes down to 33 m. You get in from a boat. It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces S: swell from the S reaches it, and wind from the N blows out to sea. No dive centre within 50 km on the map: book a liveaboard or a boat from further off. The sea is about 16°C in February, its coldest month (7 mm wetsuit and hood), and 28°C in July, its warmest (3 mm wetsuit). The town to stay in is Atlantic Beach.
