Description
The most popular diving attraction of Grand Bahama, this shipwreck even appears on many maps of the island. Theo Galanopoulos sank the 228-foot cement hauler off the shore near Freeport in 1982 as a present to the Bahamas to make an artificial reef. She now rests on her side at a depth of 100 feet right off the continental shelf. Divers favor entering the hull via the engine room or cargo hold. Many varieties of marine life, including numerous moray eels, now call the wreck their home. Contact the tourism board for additional information.
