Dive-site story
Inchcape 1 rests upright on a flat seabed off Fujairah. Its intact hull and superstructure form a concentrated artificial reef. Divers follow a mooring line to inspect the wheelhouse, deck machinery, and hull openings, where fish schools congregate and morays shelter inside the engine compartment and structural crevices.
Upright wreck profile with accessible deck machinery and wheelhouse
Honeycomb and giant moray eels sheltered within hull recesses
Soft corals and sponges encrusting the railings and mast
