About this site
Horseshoe Ledge sits off Florida's coast in the Atlantic, known for its vibrant marine life and dramatic topography. The site features a steep wall dropping to 90 feet, covered in colorful sponges and corals. Schools of grunts, snapper, and grouper are common, while eagle rays and turtles often glide by. Strong currents attract pelagics like sharks and barracuda. Visibility is excellent, often exceeding 100 feet. The ledge's horseshoe shape creates sheltered area for divers, making it ideal for drift dives. Depths range from 40 to 90 feet, suitable for intermediate to advanced divers.
