Only one favorite so far The RMS Rhone in the BVIs
The Rhone makes a superb dive for both pleasure and for training. The sheer size of it means you can do at least two dives without covering the whole wreckage. The easy descent from the surface to the shallower sections of the wreck makes this a great dive for those who have never done any wreck diving previously. The Rhone lies on the starboard side and the interior is still mostly intact, allowing some basic penetration. There is an abundance of life on the wreck, which is coated in coral and filled with shoals of fish. Look to the sea floor as well as to the wreck itself as there are the scattered remains of the boilers and deck supports.
