Your trip starts with you arriving somewhere between 5:00pm-6:30pm. We will give you a boat briefing, and leave the dock around 7:00pm. You will have a 12-hour cruise to dream of the diving you will be doing in the remote, pristine waters of ``The Dry Tortugas``.
Day one:
Arrive at 7:00 am on your first dive site, breakfast will be served (before or after your dive, your choice). Then we will continue to move to different dive sites throughout the day. (Plan on 5-8 sites per day). You can pick and choose which sites you`d like to dive! Most dive sites average between 40-80 feet, we can customize to your abilities. Lunch and dinner will be worked into your schedules.
Day two:
will consist of the same type of schedule. A visit to ``Fort Jefferson National Monument`` can also be worked into your itinerary.
Day three:
you will wake up anchored to the ``Baja California``, a World War ll transport ship built in 1914. The 266-foot steamship was carrying a general cargo that included tobacco when it was torpedoed just forward of midships by the German submarine U-84 on July 19, 1942. The main wreckage now sits in 115 feet of water off Naples.
All trips will be customized to your tastes!
Location description: About the Dry Tortugas
Almost 70 miles / 112.9 km west of Key West lies a cluster of seven coral reefs called the Dry Tortugas. These reefs along with surrounding shoals and waters make up Dry Tortugas National Park. Known for its famous bird and marine life, and its legends of pirates and sunken gold. Dry Tortugas National Park includes the largest of the 19th century American coastal forts.
First named The Turtles, Las Tortugas, by Spanish Explorer Ponce de Leon in 1513, these reefs soon read ``Dry Tortugas`` on mariners charts to show they had no fresh water. In 1825 a lighthouse was built on Garden Key to warn sailors of rocky shoals; in 1856 the present light on Logger Key was built.
By 1829 the United States knew it could control navigation to the Gulf of Mexico and protect Atlantic-bound Mississippi River trade by fortifying the Tortugas. Fort Jefferson`s construction began on Garden Key in 1846 and continued for 30 years but was never finished.
