Cooper's Wreck

This mysterious wreck is believed to be a whaler boat that was sunk around 1940. The wreck sits upright on the sand in 33m of water off the Cooper Lighthouse in Brighton Beach. The badly rusted hull is approximately 35m long and is covered with tangled fishing lines. This wreck is home to an abundance of tropical fish, Rays and beautiful shells. Beware, because a thriving population of Stinging hydroids can leave you with a nasty experience.
