Good Nitrox dive first thing i saw while descending...bull shark...last thing i saw during decompression...bull shark...other than that this spot is awesome...the wreck is very large and theres too much to see on one tank and with depths reaching 80 ft its best to have nitrox...last time i was there i saw a bunch of amberjacks, black snappers, and some scamp grouper...

A must dive if you dive in Pensacola. This site is just one of the best in this area and a favorite of many of the dive charters so it will not be a problem getting someone to take you there. She is full of life and a wonder to see, but you don't have to take my word for it call any shop in town and ask. Three large boilers are the focal point of this dive but by no means the only thing to see. The wreck is spread open covered in fish. When in the area check it out you won't be sorry.

Tons to see and it is awesome! We had about 35 ft visibility. Alot more stuff down there than I figured it would be. As soon as we dropped down on our first dive I was staring at a pretty big Mola Mola. I didnt know what one was at the time and I scared the crap out of me because it was way bigger than me and pretty close. Also alot of spade fish at 15 ft. Perfect scenery for a saftey stop. I wish I had a third tank to burn, because there was alot I didnt get a chance to see. I will definitely dive this spot again.
