Wreck La Machaca lies in the house reef of Captain Don's Habitat. It's not a public dive site. Permission from the resort is required. The 14 meter trawler was purposely sunk as a dive wreck. La Machaca lies upside down and is quite overgrown with weeds. You'll find it 30 meters from shore, at a depth of 14 meters. La Machaca is an old film location where in 1979 the Dutch youth series, 'Duel in de diepte', has been shot.
