Reef Etiquette...

  • DO NOT TOUCH THE CORAL. Just touching coral can cause damage to these fragile animals.
  • Use the permanant mooring buoys where provided. Do not anchor in coral or seagrass. If you must drop your anchor, do so only in sandy areas.
  • Do not hand-feed the fish. This modifies their behaviour and produces an unnatural environment.
  • The red and white dive flag must be flown while snorkeling or scuba diving.
  • Federal law prohibits polluting the sea.
  • Florida law requires a fishing license in state waters.
  • Spearfishing is NOT allowed anywhere in park waters.
