SDA59 Explore the Shipwreck of the Sapona
In our final big dive of the Bahamas, we explore the skeletal structure we see on the horizon after the rain stops In Bimini. Turns out, it's the shipwreck of a fast ship called Sapona. This magical structure has abundant coral, tons of reef fish, stingrays, jellyfish, pufferfish and so much more!
Even "Dying Light" video game underwater plants. The magic is so extreme, it turns Lisa into a mermaid!?!
Explore this wreck with us for our final undersea adventure of the season in the beautiful Bahamas. Hear the raw audio and get a good look at this amazing wreck reef inside and out. A perfect day at the perfect time brings out the awe inspiring ambience of this beauty. To think that we almost missed it entirely!
