Kudhimaa Wreck

Also known as: Kudhima Wreck · Kudimaa Wreck · Kudima Wreck · Machafushi Wreck · Kuhdi Maa Wreck

The ship was scuttled near the house reef of Machchafushi to give South Ari divers a wreck to explore. It rests on a sandy bottom at around 30 metres, with the upper structure much shallower. Corals and sponges have colonised the hull, and its holds can be entered from both sides and through the ceiling. Batfish, lionfish, moray eels and resident stonefish live around it, and nurse sharks sometimes sleep under the hull. Macro fans look for nudibranchs, pipefish, shrimps, crabs and frogfish.
