The 129m boat was an English freighter that was bombed by German aviation during WWII in October 1941. Carina now lies at a depth of 32 meters on an extension of Shaab Ali reef. The wreck site is a 15 minute boat ride away from the infamous SS Thistlegorm and is covered with corals and there is plenty of aquatic life to be seen here, especially large schooling fish.

The two islands that constitute the area, Big Brother and Little Brother, are highly popular for the breath-taking underwater scenery and spectacular marine life population. Your dive here will definitely be unforgettable!

One of the biggest attractions to the area is the frequent sighting of different species of sharks such as the Oceanic Whitetip Shark, Schooling Hammerhead Sharks, Grey Reef Sharks and Silvertip Sharks! The very rare Thresher Shark can also sometimes be spotted!

In addition to this the Islands are home to a diverse reef life with countless of colourful reef fishes, pelagic fishes such as Barracudas, Giant trevallies, Tunas and even the spectacular Manta Ray!

The Salem Express is a fascinating wreck to explore. The 100m ferry sank in 1991 with passengers and vehicles on it. The restaurant, upper decks, corridors, and bridges can still be explored. Personal belongings of the passengers, such as rolls of carpet, stereos, bicycles, chairs and even clothes can be found lying around the ship and in cabins.

Salem express is accessible to divers of all levels as its top falls at only 10M deep.
