Site description
This barge is the last stop in the Hollywood Wreck Trek. It sits upright in 70 feet of water.
From the distance, this barge resembles a house with windows on the walls. The ceiling is completely opened and tons of limestone are dumped into it.
Marine life is abundant. Schools of tropical fish decorate the view of this weird looking wreck.
