Enter the water here for best access to the reefs

It is best to enter and leave the water south of the pier.

Be aware of the occasional current that will run south west and north west.

When the currents run, they will be pushing you toward the beach, but also south or north.

The first reef begins at the 2nd lamp post past the midway shelter on the pier and runs to the end of the pier. This is safe for snorkelers and divers. Stay clear of the pier when diving, fisherman may catch you with their lines and hooks. Diving on fairly rough days is possible due to the gulf stream current, keeping water clean. On those days the vis on the second reef would be better. The water depth will not exceed 23' on 1 or 2nd reef.

You can enter onto the beach in front of that white sign in the picture, an alley access is available. The best and most underwater beauty is on the second reef. To save air you can swim out on top to the second reef then go down. Your are required to have a dive flag. Lobster can be taken on both reefs. You see more snook, tarpon, barracuda and turtles on the first reef. Nurse sharks in the cracks and holes. The second reef is brilliant with corals, coral heads, reef fish and sponges.
