Site description

The “Aquarium” dive site in Islamorada is a fascinating underwater locale that lives up to its name. With a depth of around 25 feet, it’s an excellent spot for both novice and experienced divers. This site is known for its two separate reef patches that create a natural habitat teeming with marine life, including tropical fish and lobsters. Divers often describe the “Aquarium” as a subaqueous oasis, where the vibrant coral formations and the abundance of sea creatures offer a truly immersive diving experience. It’s a perfect slice of the underwater beauty that the Florida Keys are famous for.
