Site details

Yatouche (Yatush) is a small (~15 m) gunboat deliberately sunk in August 1987 as an artificial reef and easy shore dive at Coral Beach, Eilat, roughly 400 m south of the Sufa/Satil wreck and in front of the Aqua Sport center. A buoy marks the wreck, which sits in shallow water and is now colonised by corals, making it a relaxed dive suitable for beginners. Divers can stay shallow near shore or extend the dive further out.
