really fun if you know what to look for.
Take a beginner and show them what to hunt for. You'll hook them for life.

Large concrete wreck sitting in about 12 feet of water
Not much here but the Sapona. You only need to snorkel this site. Sitting in grass with some Conch nearby. Lots of fish inside the Sapona.

Great structure to wonder around
I dove this back in 2002 and had a great dive. You could easily snorkel it but I tend to be a lazy diver and would rather stay under forever in 15 feet of water instead of going up and down. Lots of fish and a nice open structure to penetrate.

Visually Interesting
After bashing my way out to the Sapona via my dinghy, I was quite happy to find a visually interesting wreck that is easily accessed by divers of all skill levels. When I first arrived the vis was quite poor, but by the time that I left it was great. The hold and the engine room provided some great photos/video as did the propeller. There were large schools of fish on the exterior of the hull. I very much liked this dive. You can find a photo album and video at my web site: http://www.geoffschultz.org/2007_Sailing/Photos/

neat dive if you know what to look for
this site is interesting. the ribs of the ship are open and makes for easy entry into the wreck. Whatch out for fire coral!! old 50 cal rounds are all in the sand and lobster are around

Excellent introductory site
I AM NOT a diver but a major snorkler and have been on this site a number of times. The scenery is great with original structure and you will find the fish accumulation on the "dark side" which, I assume, is to stay out of vision of predators. I have not seen it but it is rumored to have a large hammerhead that visits it frequently.
