Be a part of our SCUBA diving adventures exploring the spectacular reefs located within the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary and Pennekamp State Park. Reefs like Molasses, Elbow, French Reef and the renowned Christ of the Abyss on Dry Rocks are just a few of the sites available for exploration. These preserved regions provide a chance to encounter turtles, spotted eagle rays, moray eels, and an array of distinct fish. These unique reefs are a segment of the 3rd largest living reef system globally and the only living coral reef in the US. We visit two distinct sites on the reef, selected by the captain based on the sea conditions of the day. We do not guarantee visits to specific sites.
NOTE: It’s mandatory for participants to have recent SCUBA certification and diving experience. If your last dive was over a year ago, you might need to hire a guide for an additional fee. If it has been over two years since your last dive, you will need to enroll in a refresher course. Solitary divers might also need to hire a guide.
