Peter's Peaks in Lighthouse Reef is a series of coral pinnacles rising from the sandy bottom. We've often found nurse sharks tucked away in the crevices and schools of horse-eye jacks circling above. It's a relaxed dive, usually with mild currents, making it a good spot for those looking for something less demanding than the outer walls. Visibility here is consistently good.
