Honeymoon Liveaboard 2013 - MV Orion - Dive #2
Kuda Giri Wreck, South Malé Atoll, Maldives
Wreck dive! Alright! Here we go!
A pretty big and intact metal wreck of a supply ship that hit some corals and sank quite a few years ago.
A LOT to see and explore. I could easily go for another dive to the same location, as I felt I didn't have enough time at the wreck. However, the pinnacle close to the wreck, the one that the ship hit before it sank, was also full of interesting things to see, and just about got into taking some amazing photos before we started getting low on air and had to start ascending. The wreck itself was probably grounded on about 34 meters, and our air got used up pretty quick at the very beginning of the dive.
Towards the end of our safety stop Silje suddenly ran out of air and had to use my octopus during the ascend of the last few meters! Action!
