The Phantom wreck, a dive site with a very interesting name, given by scuba divers that saw the wreck while drift-diving and then had problems finding it again. Divers think it is the Piesang, a ship that struck Emu Rocks and ran aground in the bay. It is located in front of Leisure Isle on the sand where you can see dumped rock ballast and wooden and iron remains. It can be reached after a heavy swim from shore but advised is to do it by boat with guide as it is quite a swim and also very hard to find.
