Reviews
"It’s alright, slightly boring. Did see a hawksbill turtle. Other than that, not too much going on here unfortunately."
"Great dive site. The wreck is only partially still recognisable as to what it once was - but the spot is a meeting place for sea turtles from all around, so that more than makes up for that."
"We rented a boat from John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park and did some fishing and snorkeling here- great for snorkeling, but just diving. Sea turtles, nurse shark, fish galore. Great spot."
"Lost my Gopro hero 9 here fell off me on the boat if found please contact. Besides that this was an amazing dive sea turtles everywhere ship wreck was massive lots to see. Went Down to the bottom of the wreck was about 45 feet deep."
