This is a prefabricated concrete module. These are made on shore, loaded onto a ship, and precisely placed at their forever homes. The tube that runs down the middle of the discs extends down into the sand upwards of 10 feet. This is how they stay in that exact location forever. Sand does move and at times some of these may be buried. Not completely buried, but you may only see one or two discs above the sand.

Reef Snorkeling?!? What?!?

In April of 2019 Okaloosa County started deploying snorkel reefs. They are prefabricated concrete modules. They look like 4 big pancakes on a stick. There are as many as 50 or more at a single snorkel spot. In the summer of 2021 they seem to have completed the project with putting 4 or more reefs out. The reefs we will visit are the ones that have been in the water since 2019. These have had more time to develop marine growth and a more sustainable ecosystem. 

Snorkeling atop the reefs you will encounter a wide variety of possible marine life. See the photos below! Many of these are spotted every trip!

The reefs can be as close as only 700 feet from the shore and as shallow as 15 feet deep. Yes, you can swim to them if you would like. However, not only can this be dangerous but the reefs can be hard to find. So I suggest you hop on my boat, enjoy a relaxing ride to the BEST snorkel reefs, submerge into the water with quality gear provided, and ease your mind as I keep a close eye on you and your family.
