Bath and Tennis Reef is one of the prolific inshore reefs of Palm Beach, Florida. This quarter of a mile long shallow reef has very healthy and colored coral formations, especially during bright sunny days. It is located just east of Mar-a-Lago, a seaside mansion built between 1924 and 1927 for the exceptional rich. This more than 100.000 square foot large real estate is currently owned by Donald Trump. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1980 and receives tourists from all over the world.
Bath and Tennis Reef is a quiet dive site, especially visited by visitors of the Mar-a-Lago club. Together with Breakers Reef and Flower Garden it is one of the most popular snorkeling and diving site for club members. Marine life is excellent with all the known species of coral and its inhabitants. Several honeycomb holes make it a wonderful dive site to search for lobster. Six foot high ledges, small relief, huge amount of juvenile fish and some remnants of a small wreck are the highlight why you should be diving here.
