Boat access and the wreck's depth make this best done with a Utila dive operator.
The Halliburton is a deliberately sunk cargo ship off Utila that now serves as a classic Caribbean wreck dive. It lies upright on a sandy bottom and is known for clear water, easy wreck penetration, coral growth, and strong fish life around the bridge and cargo hold. Access is by boat from Utila's dive centers near the harbor, and the site is best for trained divers who are comfortable with a deeper wreck profile.
