Veronica 'L'
The Veronica ‘L’ is a cargo vessel which was formerly located outside the town of St. Georges. She sunk on her mooring and was dived upon here for a few years. Upon announcement of the building of the new cruise ship terminal in 2002, it was decided that the Veronica ‘L’ should be moved rather than break the vessel. A dive team moved her from her original location to her new ground where she has already become encrusted in soft sponges of orange, pink and green. She is also home to some beautiful frogfish, but you need to know where to look!!
Dive Master Notes
This shallow wreck lies in 12m/40ft to the deck and has a completely open cargo hold, allowing the entire vessel to be explored. Beneath the bow, large snapper, occasional nurse sharks, French Angel fish and Queen Angel fish can often be seen. The wreck itself sits at the stern in a max of 17m/56ft on the reef bed perfectly on her keel. After exploration of the wreck, there is a chance to explore the reef around which she lies.
This dive site is suitable for OPW level and above.
