Description
The famous old ship of Isla Colon was sunk in the 90s. It was a small cargo ship used by the Chiquita banana company, which was already too old and was sunk on purpose for snorkelers and divers. Today it is an artificial reef, where you can see many species of fish and reef animals. As well as corals, plants and sponges.
