Comments Horizon Divers treated this elderly reborn diver with great care and I appreciated it. I dove six times with them. Three on shallow reefs and three on the Spiegel Grove. The Spiegel Grove is not for beginners in my opinion due to depth (65-130 feet) and mild current. She's a huge fascinating wreck that my buddy was familiar with so I followed him through some short penetrations through some passages. It has been said that one could dive the Spiegel Grove a hundred time and not see it all. I believe it. The shallow reefs they took me to were fun but it was sad that they have declined so much since the 60s when I last dove here. I would give the reefs two stars and the Spiegel Grove five. Horizon Divers I'd rate as a five star operation.
