Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including bull sharks, dolphins, hammerhead sharks, seahorses and sea turtles - Sheri-Lynn offers some of Florida Keys's richest wreck diving. Water ranges 19-32°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Sheri-Lynn is a modest wreck in the Florida Keys. It sits upright, mostly intact, which makes for some easy penetration if you're comfortable with overhead environments. We've seen plenty of grunt and snapper schooling around the superstructure, and a resident moray eel often peeks out from the stern. It’s a good second dive or a relaxed outing for newer wreck divers looking to get their fins wet.
