Nearshore: Ledges, wrecks & artificial reefs

A series of ledges, holes and cracks loaded with fish life. Several varieties of snapper and grouper inhabit the two to six foot high ledges. Visibility between 5 and 30 feet depending on time of year. This is our most popular dive.

Black Hole

The hole is also known as Naples Spring even though it is 27 miles offshore of Naples in the Gulf of Mexico.  In prehistoric times the black hole was a spring or sinkhole, but the circular opening is now 65 below the Gulf of  Mexico’s surface. The entrance to this large drowned sinkhole is 82 feet in diameter. From the rim, the limestone shaft plunges to depths of 224 feet, taking an hourglass shape at 100 feet. Sea turtles frequent the area along with large grouper and many other kinds of fish. Several sponge covered ledges can be found near the entrance. Visibility fluctuates between 10 & 50 feet with best conditions in the spring and early summer.

“R” Tower

This steel structure of a navigational tower located 30 mile south west of Naples reaches down 70 feet to the sea floor. Great schools of pelagic fish, barracuda, goliath grouper,snapper and tropical fish are attracted to the complex framework. Visibility 10 to 70 feet.

Paddle wheeler wreck

The wreck of a stern paddlewheel steamer, known locally as the “Paddlewheeler”, rests upside down in 80 feet of water  30 miles off Naples. The only clue to its identity is a pressure gauge that was manufactured in 1898.
