Located near Great Issak Island, End of the Map is in about 85 feet of water with really not much to see on the bottom. There is a 2 foot high reef ledge that can be great for lobster or lionfish if you can get that deep on a breath hold. The draw is up to 40 bull sharks in peak season with tiger sharks and hammerheads mixed in. You never know what you may see in the middle of nowhere. Not many have braved the night dive.

During the Summer of 2012, the Nursery was a patch of algae about 30 yards off the Fort Lauderdale beach populated by juvenile Bluespotted Coronetfish, baby reef squid, Plumed Scorpionfish, several octopus and a number of Green Sea Turtles. In October of 2012, Hurricane Sandy passed offshore but sent large waves that took out A1A, much of the beach and all of the Nursery. We're all hoping it comes back.

Pompano Beach Florida has great diving year round. The water temp will range from 65-82. It has a 3 reef system start at around 20ft and by time you are on the 3rd reef its about 60Ft on the ledge. Plenty of life from Turtles, Stingrays, Spade Fish, Squirrel Fish, and so much more. I always use Pompano Dive Center.
