Alligator Reef  Now marked by a 136-foot tall lighthouse, on this spot in 1822 the USS Alligator grounded and sank while protecting a convoy from pirates. Now all that remains of the wreck are the twin piles of ballast stones, but the coral reef in just 25 feet of water is vibrant and alive. As with most dive sites in the area, the depth will vary depending on where on the reef we tie up. You can count on tons of marine life which are very tame due to its marine sanctuary status.
Aquarium a well-named site with lots of tropicals, eels and usually a sea turtle.

Conch Reef & Wall  Offering an exciting change of pace from the normal spur-and-groove profiles of most Keys’ reefs, Conch Wall presents a precipitous sloping wall and captivating concentrations of barrel sponge and gorgonia punctuating the seafloor. You can dive between 40 - 100 ft. Keep an eye out for one of the big boys coming in from deeper water.

Crocker Drop-off
A 450+ foot-long wall in 50 feet of water. The wall has a thirty foot decline and features turtles, rays, grunts, yellow tail and grouper with
spur-and-groove coral and black coral on the wall.

Crocker Reef is a nice, shallow spur and groove formation patch reef. Makes a good 2nd dive.

Davis Reef dive with the Budda! The under water statue is one of the more popular photo spots on the reef.

The Eagle For the deep/wreck divers, we are fortunate to have the best wreck dive in the Keys within five miles of the shop. The wreck of The Eagle, a 287 foot freighter lies in 110 feet of water and is, without a doubt, the number one wreck. She is full of old growth and home to Goliath groupers, schools of fish, turtles and everything in between. She is a must for wreck divers.

Hens & Chickens is a shallow dive/snorkel site with lots of ledges and lots to see.
