About this site
The Navy Tug is a former US Navy tugboat lying at about 65 feet (20 metres) off Waikiki, Oahu, in Hawaii. It is one of Waikiki's most accessible wreck dives.
Visibility is excellent, coral grows on the wreck and green sea turtles are seen often. The water is calm and shallow, which makes it a good first wreck dive, or a second tank after the deeper reef dives.
