The Merci Jesus is a great wreck dive found off the coast of Florida, just north of Fort Lauderdale. It is normally visited by dive boat and not by shore diving. The Merci Jesus is 90’ long and 26’ wide, bow pointing south and the hull is upright.
The wildlife on this wreck varies each day but normally you will most likely at least see a barracuda, grouper and many small fish.
