Why dive here
With 142+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, seahorses, sea turtles and mantis shrimp - Reef SFC - Landing Craft Optimist offers some of Florida Springs's richest reef diving. Water ranges 16-31°C, warmest June, July, August.
The Landing Craft Optimist wreck sits upright, mostly intact, offering an interesting exploration for newer wreck divers. We found visibility could vary quite a bit here, but when it's good, you get clear views of the structure. It's an easy dive, often with minimal current, making it a good spot for buoyancy practice around a genuine wreck. You'll likely encounter a few reef fish taking shelter within the hull.
