That's the reason I dive them despite the lack of historical significance, they're fish attractors, along with bigger stuff such as sharks and groupers. In my experience the wrecks tend to concentrate the marine life, while so many reefs are relatively devoid of marine life.

The reefs in Palm Beach County are packed with life!! See photos and video below

Since nobody has posted here for a little bit . . . I made it out for my annual Jupiter spring break dive day earlier this week. Had a great time with Jupiter Dive Center. I was a little worried about them not having the building next to the boats anymore, but they were well set up and everything worked out fine.

We saw lemon sharks, reef sharks, a hawksbill turtle, some big barracuda, a big moray eel, and a surprise tiger shark that came around to check us out just as we were getting ready to go up to our safety stops. My son acted like a true Florida diver and went straight after the tiger for a closer look as soon as he saw it.

Good day of diving. Some of my best dives have been at Jupiter. Now -- back to cold quarries, drysuits, and doubles.

Seeing a Tiger underwater is better than any video game. That's a good son !!
