North North Dry Rocks

North North Dry Rocks: Thinking of going to Florida Keys scuba diving? Well you’re in the right place, scuba diving Florida is a unique experience.

North North Dry RocksIf you go to Florida Keys scuba diving then you will find this dive site located 5 miles south east of Key Largo. North North Dry Docks is a small shallow sheltered reef which is rarely visited compared to other dive sites.

This is a pity because the site is a mass of color. With outcrops of coral creating passageways for the fish the site is full of the most colorful fish and corals.

With huge Star Corals and Elephant Ear sponges the marine life is abundant with yellowtails, angelfish, groupers, gobies etc.

There is plenty of opportunity to take photographs with shallow waters and colorful marine life including a variety of crustaceans. This is Florida Keys scuba diving paradise.

The sheltered shallow reef makes this an ideal place to snorkel.
