Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including bull sharks, dolphins, hammerhead sharks, seahorses and sea turtles - Marriott Reef offers some of Florida Keys's richest reef diving. Water ranges 19-32°C, warmest July, August, September.
Marriott Reef gives you a good look at a typical Keys patch reef. It’s a shallow dive, usually around 8 to 12 meters, perfect for newer divers or those looking for a relaxed second dive. We’ve seen plenty of grunt and snapper schooling around the coral heads, with the occasional moray eel peeking out. It’s a solid option for an easy afternoon in the water.
