Shipwreck Cove
★★★★☆
(227)
Shipwreck Cove on Buck Island is the home of Cartanza, an old naval supply ship. This shipwreck offers excitement for new and experienced scuba divers alike. Snorkelers can also enjoy the site as the ship is clearly visible from the surface.
The Cartanza is full of life! Stingrays, porcupine pufferfish, yellow tail snapper, Caribbean reef sharks, and turtles can all be found here!
