Thailand Andaman SeaThis wreck is an old tin dredger, one of the several (now disused and sunk) scatter around west the coast line of Thailand. There is one I know of in Bang Tao Bay (Phuket), a very famous one the "Boonsung" off the coast of Bang Sak beach (North of Khao Lak) and the "Premchai 103" off the coast of Thab Lamu (south of Khao Lak). Local diving offers an amazing variety of marine life.
Accordingly, the choice between wide angle and macro is sometimes very hard.
Schools of Trevalleys and Yellowtail snapper obstract the view of the wreck at times while crabs, shrimps, nudis and other macro life is scattered all around.

United States Atlantic (North American coastal)This site is actually being built as a remnant of the Lost City of Atlantis, by the Neptune Society... and as weird as it sounds, it is a burial ground. You can have a plaque made to have put onto this amazing Lost city, and your ashes buried at sea - to be your home after life with all your fishy friends. It is beautiful! There are 2 ginormous Stone Lions with gates opening to structures. Its so cool.! That's where I want to be laid to rest..

Spain Atlantic (African coastal)As you enter the ocean from the jetty at Plya Chica, it is a short swim to the left of the bay and you find the drop off on the reef wall at about 15 meters depth depending on tides. Here is a little wreck of an old steel boat on perfect condition, even the propeller. It has become part of the reef in it´s little sheltered recess off the reef wall. It is a great place to dive because of the wreck and the abundance of oppotunities to photograph marine life with both interesting backdrops and natural lighting. I recommend this sight to any diver no matter what their interests in diving is.
