Crashboat Wall and Anchor
★★★★☆
(9,249)
This site is the remnant of an old pier. It is a shallow site, no more than 30-35 feet of depth with a sandy bottom. The wreckage on the bottom provides an artificial reef for a large variety of marine life. Visibility ranges between 10 feet (if it has been raining) to over 50 or 60 feet.
Most of the marine life here will be small tropical fish. However, it is open ocean, so there is always a possibility of seeing larger fish such as rays, sharks and, rarely, Manatee.
