L.C.U. (Landing Craft Unit)
Depth 60-80 ft./ 20-27 m. Wreck dive. This is a new wreck, therefore, not a lot of marine life is found here, with exception of a few frog fish, white tip reef sharks, and eagle rays circling the area. Hundreds of z-blocks were sunk on the side of the wreck in order to make an artificial reef. Not too far from the L.C.U., an airplane can be found by the name of 29 Down, which lays at about 75 ft./ 25 m. However, much of the airplane is gone due to the open ocean swells. Both sites can be done in a single dive, as long as you have a good air consumption. Intermediate to advanced dive. Visibility 60-120 ft./ 20-33 m.
