Little is known about the history of the Paraiso III. She was originally a Honduran-flagged offshore supply vessel. At just 120 feet (36.5 meters) the Paraiso is a compact, and relatively intact vessel that currently sits upright on a sandy seafloor just east of Key Biscayne near Miami, FL. The wreck is part of a larger wreck trek, and divers can navigate to three nearby wrecks by following each of the three paths of rebar anchored in the sand that lead away from the Paraiso’s bow. At just 76 feet (23 meters) deep, the wreck is accessible to most divers and offers some limited penetration in the open wheelhouse and the overhead environment of the main deck.
