The most photogenic wreck in Indian waters — a giant propeller standing upright in clear water.
SS Inchkeith was a British cargo vessel carrying coal and timber that struck a rock and sank at the mouth of an inlet near Duncan Island, Andamans, in March 1955. She is the most photogenic wreck in Indian waters.
The signature feature is the huge upright propeller at ~18 m. The bow lies on her starboard side with cargo holds, hatches, boilers, the engine room and even a spare propeller all explorable. Groupers, barracuda and colourful corals have settled across the hull.
Advanced Open Water is required. The wreck is accessible from both Havelock and Port Blair on overnight trips. Visibility 10–25 m in season. November to April is the dive window.
