History
Many Florida wrecks are either purpose-sunk artificial reefs or mid-20th-century losses; the local dive community repurposed several vessels to expand habitat on the shelf.
Conservation
Dive operators in Miami emphasize no-touch etiquette and reef-safe products; artificial reefs and careful buoyancy reduce pressure on natural coral formations.
Reserve your spot on the Miami Guided 2-Tank Scuba Diving: South Florida’s Reefs & Wrecks today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Bring certification & logbook
Operators require scuba certification and proof of a dive within the last 12 months—carry your card and recent log entry.
Use reef-safe sunscreen
Protect corals by using biodegradable, reef-safe sunscreen and avoid lotions before entering the water.
Plan for seasickness
Take anti-nausea medication before boarding if you’re prone to motion sickness; mornings are generally calmer.
Double-check weight and computer
Confirm weight setup and a working dive computer during the pre-dive safety check; depths reach 60–70 ft on wrecks.
Certification card & logbook
Required proof of certification and recent dives to join the trip.
Personal dive computer
