Map of SS Copenhagen Shipwreck

SS Copenhagen Shipwreck

Florida · 4.9–9.4 m

The SS Copenhagen, a 325-ft British steamer that ran onto the reef in 1900, lies broken along a rocky ledge in 16-31 ft of water about 3/4 mile off Pompano Beach. Designated Florida's fifth Underwater Archaeological Preserve and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it is the most visited state underwater preserve with roughly 10,000 divers a year. The scattered hull plates, bow section and boilers now form a fish-rich artificial reef ideal for novice divers and snorkelers.

Map of Fort Pickens Jetties

Fort Pickens Jetties

Florida · 3–15.2 m

The Fort Pickens Jetties at the western tip of Santa Rosa Island are one of the most popular shore dives in the Florida Panhandle, located within Gulf Islands National Seashore beside the historic 1834 fort. From the seawall steps a gradual sandy slope leads along the rock jetty to about 50 feet, past concrete culverts and scattered artificial habitat that shelter a remarkable density of fish. The site sits in an aquatic preserve at the edge of Pensacola Pass, so slack-tide timing is essential.
