SHIP WRECK

 

C-58 and C-55

· The ship is a former US navy vessel used as a minesweeper during World War II – originally named the USS Harlequin –

· Passed hands to the Mexican Navy, who deliberately was sunk it in the 1980s to create an artificial reef.

· After the hurricane damage from Wilma in 2005, which basically split the vessel in two, all the ship’s rooms are accessible to divers, making this a fascinating and many-faceted dive experience.

· You can interact with lobsters, parrotfish, barracudas, manta rays, barracuda, groupers and other impressive marine life.

· Divers can swim around the entire ship as well entering it (known as penetration dives).
