Sea Star II Wreck
A roughly 55–60 m steel cargo ship sunk as a dive site in the early 2000s (sources give 2002 or 2004), upright on the sea floor at about 20–27 m. Hurricanes Frances, Jeanne and Wilma have damaged her and her stern now lies on its side. Open holds and the deck allow easy penetration for trained divers; amberjacks, snappers, barracuda, groupers and the occasional turtle or shark are seen.
