Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including bull sharks, dolphins, hammerhead sharks, seahorses and sea turtles - Tenneco Towers offers some of Florida Keys's richest pinnacle diving. Water ranges 19-32°C, warmest July, August, September.
The Tenneco Towers are a series of artificial reef structures off the Florida Keys, essentially four decommissioned oil rigs sunk decades ago. We’ve found these towers attract barracuda, goliath groupers, and plenty of schooling jacks. It’s a deeper dive, usually around 30 meters, making it best for advanced divers comfortable with potential currents and open water. Visibility can vary, but on a good day, the sheer scale of the towers is impressive.
