Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Hilma Hooker
A very popular dive site, The Hilma Hooker, is a must-do dive. The 70 meter cargo ship was purposely sunk on this location back in 1984. It's a fascinating dive, if you've never had the opportunity to explore a vessel this size before. At a depth of 20 to 35 meters, you'll need to watch your air, depth and time carefully.
150 m North of the Trans World Radio entrance (South of the Airport).

This is a great free dive. Was easily visible from the surface. Saw my first bait ball here; it just hovered over the ship for a very long time, with large bar jacks feasting on it. The top side of the hull and rudder are only about 65' (20m) with the shallowest part of the hull slightly over 55' (17m). Easy for your spotter to see you down there. The day we were there, we could see even the deepest parts of the ship from the surface.
