Head out on a dive boat for a two-tank dive trip for experienced divers.
The boat ride to the first dive site takes approximately 45 minutes. The party will be split up into smaller groups and guided by a dive master or dive instructor.
Enjoy a wreck dive at the Antilla -- a German freighter scuttled by the Germans in 1945. Covered by giant tube sponges and coral formations, the wreck is surrounded by lobsters and many kinds of tropical fish. The Antilla dive has a maximum depth of 60 feet for approximately 40 minutes of bottom time.
After a 20-minute surface interval, the second dive will take place on a shallower wreck -- the Pedernalis -- an oil tanker torpedoed by a German submarine during World War II. Its pieces are spread out between coral formations, making visible the cabins complete with sinks and other fittings. The area around the Pedernalis wreck is known for its many types of groupers and its bounty of angelfish. This dive has a maximum depth of 25 feet for approximately 40 minutes.
