The Halliburton (Wreck)
The intentionally sunk Halliburton Shipwreck provides an exceptional diving experience since 1998. This cargo ship, transformed into an artificial reef, offers divers the opportunity to explore its deck at a depth of 20m and the top of the bridge at 18m. With a length of 30m, this underwater spectacle beckons to be discovered.
The marine life surrounding the shipwreck is diverse and captivating. From small crabs and shrimps hidden in the ship's cracks and crevices to larger schooling fish gracefully swimming around the outer side of the bridge, there is no shortage of fascinating organisms to encounter.
This dive, which lasts for 35 to 45 minutes, is suitable for advanced divers who are looking for an exhilarating experience without the need for penetration. It is noteworthy that this dive adheres to the No Decompression Limit (NDL), ensuring the utmost safety for divers. However, for experienced wreck diving enthusiasts, there are areas where penetration is possible, making this site an ideal destination to showcase your skills.
Located in the picturesque country of Honduras, specifically in La Punta, Útila, Bay Islands, the Halliburton Shipwreck offers a close proximity to notable landmarks such as the Lighthouse and Main Street. With a maximum depth of 29m and a visibility of 19m, this dive site promises an unforgettable underwater adventure for passionate divers seeking thrills amidst the wonders of the sea.
