About this site
A 72 m cargo ship that sank in 1984 after being impounded during a drug investigation, now lying on her starboard side in about 30 m of water between two reefs. Her hull is colonised by corals and sponges, and tarpon, barracuda and groupers are frequent visitors. The wreck sits close enough to shore to be dived from the beach.
Access & safety: Shore entry from the marked yellow stone. The top of the wreck is around 18 m and the sand around 30 m, so monitor depth and no-stop limits. Penetration is not recommended.
