The ship wrecks of Tangalooma
are located on the western side of Moreton Island near the township of
Tangalooma, a former whaling station. Moreton Island is a large sand
island - the third largest in the world - located on the coast of
south-east Queensland, Australia, which together with Fraser Island,
forms the largest sand structure in the world.
The wrecks comprises of fifteen vessels that have been deliberately sunk
near the coast to form a breakwall for small boats, also creating an
amazing wreck dive and snorkel site in the process. Even in this shallow
water, the wrecks attract an amazing amount of marine life, including
wobbegongs, trevally, kingfish, yellowtail and lots of tropical fish.
