Conch Reef Dive

One of the Keys' Best Reef Walls

Key Largo

​

Conch Reef contains stands of rare pillar coral and provides excellent habitat for conch. The seaward side has one of the best-developed reef wall systems in the Keys. Octocorals and basket sponges are also present at this site.
 

The Sanctuary Preservation Area (SPA) is located approximately 5nm (9km) south of Tavernier Key. The Research Only Area is located approximately 5nm (9km) southeast of Tavernier and is adjacent to the Conch Reef Sanctuary Preservation Area (SPA).
 

The SPA is rectangular and covers an area of approximately 0.07nm2, or about 23ha. It runs from the landward boundary to an approximate depth of 45 feet, and includes some of the reef wall. Catch and release fishing by trolling will be allowed in this SPA. In the area of marker #12, approximately, are buoys and the depth range from 17' to 5' shallows.
