The Miss Opportunity was a WWII Hospital Ship that was sank back in 1982. After being decommissioned, the decision was made to bring her inshore next to the old submarine base here on island to use heras office space for the local government. As she started to age and break down, the repair costs were too high so the government decided to let her go out for her final voyage to sea. She now rests in about 97’ of water with her deck being around 60’ from the surface.Located on the west side of the island where the current is known to be a little feisty and the swells a little rough, this 300’+ marvel is truly a treat to dive when conditions are right. Shelter to a resident Hawksbill turtle, Dog Snappers, and Horse-eye Jacks. She will keep you coming back whenever you can get the chance.
