Most planned artificial reefs sit between six and fourteen miles offshore.

Visibilities range from almost nothing near shore up till more than one hundred foot once farther out.

The most famous wreck is probably the Bayronto, a huge freighter that sank because of a hurricane when it was fully loaded with wheat. Many other dive sites can be visited although most of the better ones require a long boat ride out into the Gulf of Mexico. Enjoy this diving paradise.
