Juan Dolio is the perfect place for wreck diving. There are lots of wrecks in the area, in Juan Dolio and in its proximity. So this should be your destination of choice, if you are interested in wreck diving in the Dominican Republic.
Tanya Wreck
And right in front of our dive base there is the Tanya V wreck. It was sunk on
October 21st 1999, creating a new dive site for local and visiting divers alike.
And so it is no wonder that it was the Neptuno team who explored the wreck first
and set the buoy! Approximately 195 feet/65m. in length, the Tanya V now rests
quietly on a sand bank at depth of 22-34m, making it a good deep dive for
experienced, advanced divers. Although it's going to take time and patience for
marine life to flourish, already Tanya V has acquired her very own barracuda
guard!

Catuan and Embassy
Another half-day-wreck-trip goes to the "Catuan", a new wreck since
December 2006. It can be found in a depth from 24 to 60 feet / 20 m. We also
visit the "Embassy", an older wreck, which is full of fish.
La Caleta
You are invited to come with us to a half day trip to the underwater
national park of La Caleta. The "Limon", a 115 feet/35 m tug boat and
the famous "Hickory", Bowman's treasure hunting boat, a 130 feet/40 m
transport freighter, both lying perfectly in 60 feet/18 m depth.
We offer special wreck dive excursions visiting the most interesting wrecks during a half-day trip. For further information please contact us.
