Trip 2 to the Shipwreck Trail but our 1st off of Destin!
We're planning to visit these two shipwrecks on trip 2:
M/V Chepanoc
The Chepanoc is a 129-foot utility tug that was intentionally sunk in 2005. It rests upright and remarkably intact on a sandy bottom at a depth of roughly 107 to 108 feet, though the top of the wreck rises to about 70–80 feet, making it a great site for advanced recreational divers. It is known for its incredible marine life; you’ll often find massive Goliath groupers lurking in the shadows and dense schools of Atlantic spadefish or amberjack swirling around the wheelhouse. There are limited penetration opportunities for those with the proper training, particularly through an access point behind the wheelhouse.
M/V Janet
The M/V Janet is an 85-foot tugboat sitting at a slightly shallower depth, typically resting in about 93 to 100 feet of water. Much like the Chepanoc, it stands upright on the seafloor and rises approximately 30 feet toward the surface, putting the top of the structure around 65–70 feet deep. Because of its slightly smaller profile and accessibility, it is often frequented by intermediate divers. The wreck is heavily encrusted with soft corals and sponges, attracting a variety of tropical fish, snapper, and the occasional sea turtle, providing a classic Gulf Coast "wreck-to-reef" experience.
