Scuba Diving/Snorkeling The shore dive capital of South Florida.

Lauderdale By The Sea is well known for its wide, sandy beaches and clear blue-green waters. What many people don't realize is that it's also recognized as "The Shore Dive Capital of South Florida". The reason for the name is due to a series of live reefs just off shore and easily accessible with a beach dive. The closest reef is within about 100 yards of shore. Local divers claim the Honeycomb Reef system is closer here than anywhere in South Florida.
