Whether you are diving, snorkeling or just joining us for the ride, you`ll find that our staff is highly trained and friendly, our boats are state of the art and roomy and our facilities first class. Come join us to see some of the most spectacular reefs, awesome wrecks and beautiful fish life found in Key Largo and Islamorada.
Your journey begins when you step off our Dock and onto one of our three custom dive boats. You’ll find that each of our boat has all the comforts to make your experience enjoyable and memorable. Our newest boat which just came into service in June is a custom Newton 46, the premier charter boat in the industry. It’s 46 feet long and 16 feet wide and has a seated sun deck which translates into spaciousness and comfort. And, we serve fresh fruit for the trip back to the dock.
Location description: Some words about our favorite dive sites.
Reefs:
*Captain Tom`s Ledge: A coral ledge that contains the whole food chain, from large grouper to over 5000 schooling fish. A beautiful dive in 35-60 feet of water.
*Conch Wall: The home of a number of sites. Conch Wall (50-110 ft.) noted for huge barrel sponges and large marine life.
*Crocker Ridges: Spur and groove coral formations with large coral heads. Known for angelfish and butterflies.
*Crocker Wall: (45-90 ft.) Large sponges and gorgonians with excellent marine life. Even the occasional eagle ray.
*Davey Crocker: (15-30 Ft.) A beautiful patch reef ideal for underwater photographers. Nurse sharks, groupers, jacks, and many tropical fish inhabit this area.
*Davis Reef: One of the nicest reefs in the area. Noted for its abundance of large green moray eels, and a multitude of tropical fish. Great spot for night dives. (15-30 Ft.)
*Hens and Chickens: (5-25 ft.) Beautiful peaks and mounds of star and plate coral. Better visibility in the summer at this near shore reef.
*Little Conch Reef: (15-30 Ft.) Smaller shoaling reef with a variety of marine life, including nurse sharks and moray eels. Adjacent is the site of the Spanish Galleon, El Infante, sunk in the 1733 hurricane. (15-30 Ft.)
*Molasses Reef: The best known and most popular sites in Coral Reef State Park (formerly Pennekamp Park). Noted for lots of fish, many star coral heads, regal stands of Elkhorn coral, The ``winch hole,`` and a Galleon anchor. (15-30 F.)
*Pete`s: (12-20 ft.) Series of patch reefs with excellent soft and hard coral, plenty of fish life and noted for the nurse sharks.
*Pickles Reef: Ideal for macro photographers because of the many small critters. Very pretty reef that includes cement barrels from a civil war wreck. (10-25 ft.)
*Pillar Coral: (15-25 ft.) Beautiful stands of rare pillar coral and numerous small fish.
*Spanish Lady: (15-25 ft.) An area along Little Conch which provides a series of ledges. Excellent for juvenile fish life plus great lobstering
Wrecks:
*Spiegel Grove: The first thing sport divers notice about the Spiegel Grove wreck is its immensity. Because the Spiegel Grove measures 510 feet from stern to bow, on even the clearest days it will be impossible to view the entire hull from end-to-end. ``Imagine a ship lying along the bottom that`s almost two football fields long. That`s the Spiegel Grove,`` said Miami scuba enthusiast Jerry Apple, a veteran wreck diver who explored the ship soon after its June 2002 sinking. The retired Navy transport ship was intentionally sunk six miles off Key Largo to form the backbone of a coral-reef ecosystem. It is the largest ship ever intentionally sunk for that reason. The algae, sponges and corals that are slowly enveloping the Spiegel Grove are wondrously natural. The ship is home to legions of fish from tiny tropicals to large barracuda and jacks.
