Alonissos National Marine Park - Alonissos Marine Park

The Bill Boyd wreck in the Florida Keys sits in a shallower spot, making it a good pick for newer wreck divers or those looking for an extended bottom time. You’ll find schools of grunt and snapper hanging around the structure, with the occasional barracuda cruising by. It’s a straightforward dive, not overly dramatic, but reliable for some easy exploration and fish spotting.
