About MV Trident

The MV Trident is a small commercial vessel sitting on the sandy bottom near Shark Island at 34–36m depth. Its compact size makes for a quick but exciting exploration, with groupers and moray eels having claimed the interior spaces. The depth makes bottom time limited on recreational air, so this is primarily a site for deep specialty dives and technical training.
