Million Dollar Point

The third day of diving we decided to leave the luxory liner SS President Coolidge to dive at Million Dollar Point.
The place has got its name as the Americans dumped millions of dollars worth of equipment at the end of WWII. The cost of shipping it home was too high and according to our guide the Americans tried to sell everything to the French at an unreasonably high price. When the French came back with a lower offer the Americans were offended and decided to dump everything into the sea. Maybe not the best for the environment but fun for scuba divers as the bottom from 15 to 42 metres is covered with cars, jeeps, boats, trucks and so on.
The spots also attracts sea life and we saw a lot of corals. Anders and Annika even saw a turtle, when Markus and I were stuffing around with the camera.

We had a good time diving the MM$Point even though we were longing for more reefs and colourful fish at this point.
