About this Dive Site
Description
The USS Tucker, a US destroyer tragically lost to a friendly mine in WWII, lies scattered across a sandy slope. Explore its stern and mid-section, remarkably intact, where you can still spot gun turrets, ammunition, and immense propellers, a poignant reminder of history beneath the waves.
