Benwood Shipwreck
Wreck Diving in Key Largo with Sail Fish Scuba
Benwood Shipwreck Dive Site Description
Most dive shops do this as a second site after diving the famous Spiegel Grove shipwreck. While this is a nice practice, Sail Fish Scuba has a soft spot in our hearts for this fish filled shipwreck, so many times we will actually do both dives right here at this site so our dive guides can take their time leading our groups not only around the main wreck itself, but go out in each direction to all the huge other chunks scattered in the lovely reef that surrounds the wreck.
