SAS Pietermaritzburg, wreck
★★★★☆
(195)
This wreck is situated the Miller’s Point area. This is an easily accessible wreck in fair condition, but deteriorating rapidly. The wreck is of some historical interest but is not protected by legislation. The wreck is mostly intact and lies at 22m with the highest point being at about 18m depending on tides.
The wreckage is heavily encrusted with invertebrates, and home to several species of fish. In September 2010 the dominant invertebrate species was clearly the Mauve sea cucumber.
