The USS Spar is a 180-foot Coast Guard cutter that sits perfectly upright. It's a fantastic artificial reef and a great multi-level dive, often patrolled by large schools of sand tiger sharks.

Features

A 55m (180ft) former Coast Guard cutter sitting perfectly upright on a sandy bottom. The wreck is fully intact and is a fantastic habitat for sand tiger sharks, which are very common here. The currents can be strong.
