Dive-site story
Sunk in 1984 after being seized for carrying contraband, this intact cargo vessel rests on its starboard side on a sand plain pinned between an inner and an outer coral reef. Large tarpons frequently patrol the hull and open cargo holds, using the structure for shade. Divers can inspect the massive propeller, the rudder assembly, and the coral growth flourishing along the mast and superstructure.

Expansive views of the stern running gear, rudder, and propeller
Shore access marked along the road with easy navigation across the inner reef flat
