This dive site is The Hogla, a 25-meter (75-foot) long tow boat intentionally sunk in 1996 to create an artificial reef. It rests at a maximum diveable depth of 24 meters, with an average depth of approximately 12 meters. Due to its offshore location, access is typically by boat. Navigation involves descending to the wreck and exploring its structure, which provides cover and habitat for marine life.
Divers can expect to encounter schools of open water fish congregating around the wreck. The structure itself hosts various bottom dwellers, including groupers and large lobsters. While not explicitly mentioned, wrecks typically attract smaller reef fish, crustaceans, and potentially some soft corals or sponges over time.
The Hogla is best visited by experienced divers due to generally low visibility. While specific seasonal highlights aren't provided, wrecks like this are generally good year-round, with calmer seas typically offering better diving conditions. Freedivers and snorkelers will find the site too deep to fully appreciate, as it's primarily a scuba diving destination.
