Overview
The Drift is a dive off Humacao described by only two sources. A travel guide says divers float along with nurse sharks and angelfish into a valley of swim-throughs and ledges. A 1998 dive guide gave depths of 35 to 55 ft. Current conditions have not been confirmed, so ask a local operator before planning it.[1][2]
