Lying in only five metres of water midway between South Bimini and Cat Cay, the SS Sapona sits half above and half below the surface, its concrete hull pierced and bent by a century of storms. A favourite Bahamian dive and snorkel site, it is easy enough for first-time snorkellers and visually striking for divers, with reef fish, snapper and the occasional eagle ray inside the hull.
The site has a strange second life as a target for US Air Force pilots, who used it for bombing practice during the Second World War — the perforations in the hull are partly weather, partly artillery. Most Bimini dive operators include the Sapona on their half-day trip schedules.
