Greater Fort Lauderdale is home to a three- tiered barrier reef that parallels 23 miles (37 kilometers) of world famous white sand beaches. You will enjoy tropically, warm blue waters and Caribbean quality visibility while experiencing beautiful coral reefs, a wide variety of tropical fish and more than two dozen coral, encrusted shipwrecks that have become thriving habitats for spectacular marine life.

Located within a mile and a half off shore, Lauderdale Diver offers a wide variety of dive sites for you to experience from 30 ft/ 10 meter reefs, 60 ft/ 18 meter drift dives and a variety of shipwrecks that lie in water depths ranging from 30 ft/ 10 meters to 135ft/ 40 meters.

The sub-tropical climate of South Florida allows for enjoyable diving year round. With over 3,000 hours of sunshine per year it is no wonder Florida is called “The Sunshine State”.
