Snorkeling and Scuba Diving at Antilla Wreck

This is the largest WW II ship wreck in the Caribbean at ~400 ft. The ship was scuttled by its captain on May 10, 1940. Wide open sections allow divers to penetrate the wreck with ease. But some parts of the wreck are i unstable. Shifts caused by storms causing modest but steady fuel oil leak as of late Feb. 2009. Seemed like more of a cosmetic hazard for those who were fouled, but light-colored dive shirts/swim suits had to be thrown out. The wreck is located on the west coast of the northernmost side of Aruba. You can see it from the surface. Antilla Wreck is also known as Ghost Ship.
