About SS Monte Carlo

A wreck dive. It goes down to 6 m. You get in from the shore. It suits Advanced divers and up, as a dive guide states it. The coast faces SW: swell from the SW reaches it, and wind from the NE blows out to sea. No dive centre within 10 km, the nearest 11 km away. The sea is about 15°C in January, its coldest month (7 mm semi-dry or a drysuit), and 22°C in August, its warmest (5 mm wetsuit). The town to stay in is Coronado. Within 5 km we also list 4 surf spots, 1 wind sports spot and 1 dive site.
