Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Amtrak and Cemetery Wall
Drive to the back of the cemetery to the beach and enter the water left of the pipeline. You will see some coral rocks above water, jutting out from the pipeline. Drop down there and then, until you get familiar with the area, I suggest you hug the reef line to the right. To the left will be a sandy channel with many coral pillars and formations that you can check out. At about 45 to 50 feet, start looking for a large shadow in this sandy channel, which will be the Amtrak. This personnel carrier sunk in WWII was part of the U.S. invasion force that stormed the island in 1944. Even if you don't find the Amtrak, the reef is quite beautiful and worth exploring. On the way back, you can ascend and dive the edge of the reef flats to your left.
This dive site is located down south in Agat on the back side of the cemetery.

I was a little apprehensive of parking here as it was obviously a party site. There is a ton of trash everywhere on shore. Really sad actually. We went right after the rains, so the vis was not that great, only 35 or so. All in all it's a fun dive. Worth checking out. When walking out to the water, hug the right side of the pipe and the middle of the jetty. Easier sand that way. I suggest getting in 15 feet from the wave breaks, swimming 20 yards to the left then heading out to sea again. You can dive about 5-10 feet later.
