Diver's Notes

The St. Anthony's Wreck was intentionally sunk in 1997 as an artificial reef. The wreck is 65 feet long and has a cargo area you can swim into. Several turtles reside on the wreck. In years past a few frogfish lived on the wreck and as of Sept 2010 they are still living there. There is a tire reef just off the wreck which is groups of old tires stuck to concrete blocks. The reef does attract lots of fish including Butterflyfish, Trumpet fish, Oval Chromis and an ocassional white tip off in the sand.
