The ex-USS Kittiwake is a former submarine rescue vessel that was intentionally sunk to create an artificial reef. Sitting in clear, shallow water, it's an incredibly accessible and enjoyable wreck dive for all levels, with five decks to explore.

Features

A 76.5m (251ft) long shipwreck purposefully prepared for divers. Doors and hatches have been removed to allow for safe and easy swim-throughs and penetration. The wreck is home to horse-eye jacks, groupers, and sea turtles.
