About This Dive Spot
Heartbreak Ridge is a deep water reef that begins at a depth of 35 meters (110 feet) and extends beyond 100 meters (330 feet). The slope of the reef levels off around 70 meters (210 feet), while the remnants of the old coastline can be found between 75 to 85 meters (230 to 260 feet). This site is particularly noted for its population of lionfish, making it an ideal location for divers looking to manage their numbers. The reef is adorned with large black coral trees, exceeding 2 meters (6 feet) in height, and black gorgonians are present along the edges. Pelagic fish, including Almaco jacks measuring over 2 feet, are frequently observed in this area. Due to the depth and limited access, this site is suitable for experienced divers only.
