Sachem Wreck is a boat accessible salt water dive site, located in NJ. The maximum depth is 71-80ft/22-24m. The average visibility is 16-20ft/5-6m.
The Sachem wreck is typical of the remains of many unknown wooden sailing ships that are found off the NJ coast. Three parallel sets of ribs and scattered decking between provide good habitat for lobster. The wreck sits in 60’ of water on a clean sandy bottom and visibility is usually good on this site. Fairly large and scattered, it also provides good opportunity for the spearfisherman
