Overview
The Aida and Numidia wrecks are located near Big Brother Island. The Numidia, a steam cargo ship sunk in 1901, lies perpendicular to the reef descending from 8 to 80 meters. It features marked train axles and is covered in soft and hard corals. The Aida, sunk in 1957, lies with its bow on the reef and stern in deeper waters. Both wrecks are richly covered with corals and boast prominent marine life like trevallies and groupers, but are recommended for experienced divers due to depth and currents. https://hallsdivingcentercareerinstitute.wordpress.com/tag/numidia-and-aida/
