Tug Heron

The Tug "Heron" and an LCM Landing Craft were deployed as artificial reefs in 1990. The two wrecks sit upright and side by side, 80' apart. Depths 75-95'. Grouper, Snapper, Amberjack, Triggerfish, and Jewfish are common residents. Occasional Tuna, Dolphin, Cobia, and Wahoo. Before being separated by Hurricane OPAL in 1995, the tug originally and unintentionally rested upside down on top of the LCM. Approximately 13 miles SSE of Pensacola Pass
