The recent torrential rains in the Maldives have caused extensive damage to the famous shipwreck in Vaavu atoll, a popular local tourist attraction near Keyodhoo.
Images and videos circulating on social media show the wreck, now flipped upside down. Hevana Maldives, a guest house in Keyodhoo, shared videos on Instagram that reveal the ship’s hull partially submerged and the mast severely damaged.
