Dive the largest artificial reef / wreck in the United States! The aircraft carrier USS Oriskany is over 900 feet long and lies in the waters off Pensacola, Florida. Divers reach the top of the ship’s superstructure at approximately 60 feet, and you can max out depth at about 130 feet on the flight deck. This is simply one of the biggest, most awesome sights you can ever see under water. The superstructure has plenty of swim-throughs as well.
Here’s the trip schedule:
September 18 - 21, 2008
Thurs: drive to Pensacola, FL
Fri & Sat: dive the Oriskany (two nitrox dives per day)
Sun: drive home
An Advanced Open Water certification or significant diving experience is recommended since this is a deeper off-shore wreck site.
$599 trip cost includes diving and three nights accommodations (double occupancy) at the Suburban Lodge. Divers are responsible for their own transportation and meals. Come in to New Horizons soon to sign up because this trip will fill up fast.
