SS Copenhagen (Wreck)
★★★★☆
(856)
This is a true wreck off the coast of Lauderdale-by-the-Sea that’s over 100 years old, sinking in 1900. It was a 325-foot steamer sitting in only 15-30 feet of waters so this is a great snorkel as well as a dive.
You’ll see large schools of bait fish in and around the wreck as well as nurse sharks, turtles, and lots of other reef fish.
