Information on The Benwood from http://www.bluewaterdiver.net/
This wreck has become an impressive artificial reef, providing the only high profile relief in the immediate vicinity. All types of aquatic life have taken up residence here. Schools of barracuda and other predators now patrol the wreck, while hordes of smaller fishes seek refuge amidst the debris. Hard and soft corals have almost completely encrusted the hull and deck. At night, the Benwood comes alive with feeding invertebrates and amazing bioluminescence. Parrot fishes "bed-down" for the night here, while other creatures come out to feed. The Benwood is considered to be one of the best shallow wreck dives in Key Largo.
