Key West Dive Trip


Let's Dive!!  Join Captain Hook’s Dive Key West  and our experienced dive team for a morning or afternoon dive in the in Key West of the Florida Keys.  The range of diving available to our divers is limitless, with a number of great sites with variable depths to match your level of diving experience.

VANDENBERG WRECK – 95 TO 100 ft. depth to the deck.  This world class wreck is over 520 ft. in length.  It is the largest most accessible artificial reef in the world and sits in 145 ft. of water.  This World War II troop transport also served as a missile tracker during the cold war.  Her signature giant radar dishes were used to track the Mercury, Gemini and Apollo capsules.  Our guided dive on the deck will lead you in exploration of its unique super structure, radar dishes, bridge, com-rooms and crown nest on an air profile.  May 2012 marks her 3rd yr. on the bottom and she continues to attract an ever increasing variety of marine life.

At Capt. Hooks Dive Key West, we provide a complimentary divemaster with each dive trip.  They know the reef and the local marine residents, and they can point out the highlights on our dives.  Having a divemaster in the water has helped many of our divers that have not been diving in a while to reach a higher comfort level by knowing there is someone nearby who can help. The divemaster is only there if you want to use them as a guide, it is your choice, and many of our divers explore on their own with their dive buddy.
