About this site
Yellowtail Reef sits off West Palm Beach on Florida's southeast coast, part of the reef system running along the Palm Beach County shoreline in the Atlantic. Sites in this stretch are typically reached by short boat runs out of the Palm Beach inlet. Divers here have reported Atlantic sergeant major, French grunt, grey angelfish, tomtate, and seaweed blenny among the fish life, along with red cushion sea stars and yellowline arrow crabs on the reef structure itself.
