    The RV Zapala is an artificial reef sunk in the Florida Springs system. You'll find a relatively intact wreck, offering plenty of nooks and crannies to explore for various smaller fish and invertebrates. It’s a good spot for divers looking for a straightforward wreck dive without extreme depths or currents, suitable for those with some experience in overhead environments.
