Long Reef Key Details
This reef features deep surge channels that run between ranges of coral. Big star and brain coral heads can be observed at Long Reef Key, as well as areas of plate coral. Beginning in 35 feet of water and extending to 65 feet, the dive is appropriate for both beginners and experts when visibility is good. When it's not good, however, beginners might wish to opt for an easier dive. Use the surge channels like roadmaps to help you keep your bearings.
