This 35-foot barge was previously used in the reef program. It is made of 600 tons of concrete from the demolition of the Old Clearwater Pass Bridge, plus culvert and light poles. Many tall pyramid structures including “Twin Peaks” which is at about 80 ft.
You’ll see the typical Gulf of Mexico Caribbean fish species like stingrays, snapper, triggerfish, hogfish, and possible sandbar, blacknose, and bonnethead sharks.
