Haven't dove it? Gotta dive it! Dove it? Dive it again!! Lots of passages accessible with an open water cert and tons with a tech cert and reel. Find Snoopy, the kitchen, the locker room, and basketball court...as well as a little trinket that you can move if you find it. More

This is a must-dive wreck when you visit the upper keys! Viz and current can vary day-to-day, so let the dive operator make the call when heading out. More
