Description

The Claris is a shipwreck site out west of Glenelg.

This site sports two main bodies, with one wreck quite broken up and the other wreck upright in the shape of a small tugboat. There is a set of star droppers between both wrecks so you can easily visit both on a dive.

A lovely wreck and with greater depth than the dredge or barge makes for a good alternative metro dive.

Access

Access is via boat with the closest boat ramp being at West Beach. As this wreck is a far way out, pick a day with better than average conditions.
