Divable cruise Ships?

[CrawfishDiver]

Just got back of a Norweigian cruise ... Lets just say freestyle cuising isn't freestyle. Made me wonder I know some ships have gone down anyone know of a divable cruise wreck?

I'll put in a second vote for the Mikhail Lermontov in Port Gore, New Zealand. The shallow depth (36m) gives plenty of divetime, spent on and in the wreck rather than deco.

Does the Andrea Doria count?

Would have to mention the Empress of Ireland if you wanted to talk diveable cruise liners. Its in 150ft. which isn't bad but the rest of the enviromental factors don't make it a beginner dive either...........

Only for tech divers...

El, that link for the Lermontov is very cool. I learned something today.

Don't go on any cruises... :laurel:

The USS President Coolidge is at Espiritu Santo VANUATU. Depths are 21 meters at the bow and about 70-75 meters at the stern.
