    The Beach House site in the Florida Keys sits at a consistent 19 meters, making it a comfortable dive for beginners. We've often found small nurse sharks tucked under ledges here, and the usual suspects of reef fish, like grunts and snappers, cruise through the coral formations. It’s a pretty straightforward dive, good for getting your buoyancy dialed in or for a relaxed afternoon dip if you’re looking for something calm. Visibility can vary, but generally, it’s a pleasant, easy-going spot.
