- The Susanna Wreck rests on the sea floor only a few hundred meters off shore near Ramoza beach. Susanna was privately owned and used primarily for liveaboard trips. Resting on her side at 17 meters makes exploring this wreck fun and easy. This dive can be either from the beach or a boat.

Being so close to the shoreline, diving this wreck is possible even when the weather conditions are not favorable. It can be choppy at times but usually quite calm in the early morning or late afternoon. If you plan to visit this site on a beach dive, it is recommended to make a surface swim until you reach the general area. Without a compass, this wreck can be difficult to find. Once you arrive, enter the water just above the wreck and descend until near the bottom, about 15 meters. The underwater topography is quite flat making this dive very safe. Care must be taken when diving near the wreck because it probably has not come to its final resting position. It is not recommended to go inside but you can easily see everything from the large openings in several places.

Inside there are lots of glassfish, lionfish, shrimp and other tiny creatures. Turtles have been known to visit this area, especially at night and dolphins swim by occasionally. There is always something interesting to see.
