Why dive here
With 87+ marine species recorded in the area - including bull sharks, dolphins, hammerhead sharks, seahorses and sea turtles - Tumble Rock offers some of Florida Keys's richest diving. Water ranges 19-32°C, warmest July, August, September.
Tumble Rock in the Florida Keys is exactly what it sounds like, a jumble of large rocks creating ledges and small overhangs. It's a decent spot for macro life, with plenty of small crabs and moray eels tucked into the crevices. We often find juvenile fish hiding out here too. It's a pretty easy dive, suitable for newer divers looking for something a bit different from the typical coral patch.
