Visitors to Ocho Rios can dive the Kathryn wreck site. In 1991 a dive operator deliberately sunk the 140-foot steel minesweeper. The ship is just 50 feet below the surface, and the fish here have grown accustomed to divers, who regularly feed them by hand. Divers have access to the ship’s interior, which has already started to grow a thriving population of black coral. The wreck sits between Runaway Bay and Ocho Rios, but is best accessible from Ocho Rios.
