You step from the sun-warmed sand of South Beach into a shallow ribbon of glassy water; the air smells faintly of salt and diesel from the harbor, and the guide secures your gear while the shoreline hums with tourists and fishing boats. Small coral plates slope away underfoot, and within minutes the reef opens into pale sand corridors punctuated by rusting metal—remnants of ships, tanks and planes that now host anemones and shoals.
