Overview

"Join Adrenalin Snorkel and Dive for two thrilling dives on the legendary SS Yongala, one of the world's top wreck dive sites. With gear hire included and departures from Townsville and Magnetic Island, explore rich marine life and the history beneath the surface. "

Discover the legendary SS Yongala wreck, consistently ranked among the world’s top 10 dive sites. Located within the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park, this 110-metre ship tragically sank in 1911 and is now an awe-inspiring artificial reef. Resting between 15 and 29 metres below the surface, the wreck is protected under the Historic Shipwreck Act (1976) and offers divers the chance to witness an incredible diversity of marine life and coral growth.

Named by Red Bull as the best wreck dive for sea life, the SS Yongala is home to giant groupers, sea turtles, eagle rays, sea snakes, and large schools of fish. This full-day trip includes two unforgettable dives at the site, full dive gear hire, morning and afternoon tea, and a light lunch. Our professional crew provide expert dive briefings, sharing the ship’s history while ensuring your safety and enjoyment.

With easy pick-ups from Townsville and Magnetic Island, this is your opportunity to explore one of the planet’s most remarkable underwater experiences with Adrenalin Snorkel & Dive.
