EASTERN DRY ROCKS
Verenigde Staten, Florida
Eastern Dry Rocks is a dive site with an old galleon that is hardly recognizable anymore. Scattered over the dive area you will find, besides some copper ship parts, old stones that were once used on board the ship as ballast. Only enthusiastic and dedicated divers are able to recognize underwater objects from the ship.
