Site description
The Titan, an approximately 70-foot long tug, was scuttled about six nautical miles off St. Lucie Inlet in 80 feet of water. The wreck rests upright, facing west, just inshore of a natural reef line known as the Six Mile Reef. Divers can enter the water just south of the wreck and drift northward with the prevailing current until they spot the Titan in the sand, a short distance from the reef. This setup allows divers to explore both the natural reef and the small shipwreck in a single dive. Unfortunately, the 2004 hurricanes impacted the tugboat, tearing off the Titan’s wheelhouse structure and depositing it in the sand approximately 40 feet away from the hull.
