OVERSEA RAILROAD WILL OPEN MONDAY
New York Time
Jan 21, 1912

Key West Scuba Diving

 

 

 

    This site is marked by Sombrero Light. Most dives start near the center.
Here you will find The Arch an 8 foot high natural coral bridge with massive
Star Coral nearby. Going back toward the tower you encounter Elkhorn corals
Heading out from the arch you find lots of overhangs, and ledges to explore
with their abundance of fish and other sea creatures.

Delta Shoal

 

   

     Delta Shoal is a little over a mile east of Sombrero Light. The Brain Corals,
and Star Corals make for a good living environment for lobsters, moray eels, and
other sea creatures. On the east end you will find the Delta Shoal Barge with
lots of fish and shallow water soft corals. Off the west end you may be able to
find the Ivory Coast Wreck lost in 1853. It was a slave ship. Little is left but you
may be able to find its location by finding the remains of its ballast stones.
