MV Produce

The Produce, a Norwegian bulk carrier, struck the northern edge of Aliwal Shoal in 1974 and went down with no loss of life — the crew was famously rescued with help from local fishermen. Fifty years of Indian Ocean later, she lies broken and softened on the sand, her holds and hull plates a giant fish shelter. Brindle bass the size of small sofas loiter in the shadows, oversized morays share cracks with lobster, and clouds of geelbek and baitfish wash over the wreckage. The site's mood depends entirely on the day's water: emerald and moody or blue and generous.

您此行的高光时刻: Resident giant grouper (brindle bass); fish-packed broken holds

地形地貌: Large broken freighter lying on sand inshore of the shoal proper

水流: Open-water descent down a line; current and visibility swing with the Agulhas edge.

危险因素: Depth, loose plates and snag points, and variable visibility.

许可证与规定: Aliwal Shoal MPA permit required, arranged via operators.

保育: The wreck is protected within the MPA — no artifact recovery, no penetration of unstable sections.

高氧（Nitrox）: 在此值得使用——各潜点深度落在富氧空气（nitrox）能有效延长免减压时间的区间（前提是持有相应认证）。
