Diving Joe's Tug

Photographers; grab you wide angles for this wreck as this dive offers an excellent opportunity for some gorgeous wide angle photography. Joe's Tug sang at its pier in Key West in 1986, it was raised, cleaned and prepped for sinking as an artificial reef off of Miami. Later being broken in 2 pieces due to a hurricane, she is missing half the upper deckhouse and large diesel engine, which has the appearance of something more appropriate for a fish tank. The little tug adds a nice mix to the surrounding coral heads. The marine life is great and filled with schools of schoolmasters and the barracuda just love to hang out around the cabin. Huge leather barrel sponges and star coral are prominent and the tug is also a popular hangout for Goliath groupers and shelters schools of snapper, as well as a resident Jewfish named "Elvis" and a friendly and inquisitive moray eel.
