Meridian (Wreck)

About this dive site

This dive site is the Meridian wreck, located in deep waters off the coast of Spain. Navigation requires careful planning and attention to the strong currents that are typical in this area. The wreck itself is a significant feature, offering a range of exploration opportunities for experienced divers, though it's crucial to maintain awareness of the depth and currents. The exact history of the wreck may require further research.

The diverse marine life surrounding the wreck includes rays, tunas, mako jack, trumpet fish, and nudibranchs, along with many other species. The abundance and variety of fish contribute to a rich and rewarding dive experience. Divers can expect to see an interesting mix of macro and large animals, making it suitable for both macro and wide-angle photography.

The best time to visit is likely during the warmer months (spring and summer), when visibility is generally excellent (around 20 meters) and the currents may be somewhat milder, though still strong. Divers should be appropriately trained and equipped for deep dives and challenging currents, making this location unsuitable for beginners. Experienced freediving may be possible in calmer conditions near the surface, but the depth and currents make it unsuitable for the majority of freediving practices.
