REEF DIVES
North Jetty Reef
Blowing Rocks
The Cave

The Atlantic reefs from Jupiter through Stuart are generally continuations of the rock ledges that parallel the West Palm coastline. Reefs following the contour of the land are abandoned by the Gulf Stream's clear water as it continues its northerly flow. Murky outflow from the rivers and water periodically released from Lake Okeechobee also limit visibility. Summer diving is considered best. Then, calm and clearer waters usually prevail. Diving during winter months is more demanding but offers a greater variety of fish and more lobster. Because they are dived less, the rock reefs of the area are not as easily identified as those to the south. They are, however, quite large and extensive, sometimes running continuously for miles.
