St. Pedro/Atlantis submarine. photos

[derek b]

All of Janurary my dive buddy paul and I have been diving St. Pedro wreck In hopes of getting some great photos of a freediver and the submarine. Getting the shots turned out to be harder than expected as The submarine passes the wreck once every 45+ min. The first couple trips out there we were trying to play it by site and dive down to the bottom when we saw the sub comming twds us. That worked out very poorly as neither of us where prepared for a deep dive so suddenly. On the third trip out we decided just to hang out on the boat and time the tour, directions, stops, how long it takes to turn around ect, and plan out our dive plans. That helped us greatly.


floor bottom is 87', tip of wreck is 56' longest dive was 2:26.

Submarine is from the Atlantis adventures, and holds 64 passangers.
