About this site
Pompano 3rd Reef Ridge sits off Pompano Beach in Broward County, on Florida's southeast Atlantic coast, in the area locally known as the third reef, a limestone ridge running parallel to shore farther out than the first two nearshore reef lines. Broward County's reef system is typically reached by short boat trips out of nearby inlets like Hillsboro Inlet. The site has a maximum depth of around 7.6 metres, making it a shallow stretch of this ridge.
