SS United States to Sink
The 990-foot SS United States is being sunk in the Gulf of Mexico to become the world’s largest artificial reef and a new scuba-diving destination. Its upper decks will lie 55 to 60 feet below the surface, while the ship’s deepest parts will be about 180 to 200 feet down; visiting the top requires at least Open Water Diver certification, with advanced training needed for deeper or interior exploration. Marine life, including fish, sharks and turtles, is expected to colonize the wreck.
