Scuba Diving Rockingham

RMS Orizaba

Maxdepth : 15m

Experience : Novice

The RMS (Royal Mail Steamer) Orizaba sank on the Five Fathom bank off of Rockingham at the turn of the century, it is now well broken up but still has massive sections of the vessel to explore.

Things to see.
As well as the obvious wreck there is also reef.

Hazards.
As the wreck is well broken up you need to be careful of sharp metal, the area is also prone to surge as it lies in open ocean.

Best time to dive.
The best time to dive here is when there is a small swell and little wind.
