About Flower Garden
Flower Garden is a boat-accessed reef off West Palm Beach with a shallow ledge, distinct inner and outer drops, and finger-like extensions that break the reef into easy-to-read sections. It is known for dense coral growth and a lively mix of reef fish, sharks, turtles, rays, and grouper, with drift-friendly water movement giving the site a classic South Florida reef feel. The site is easy to enjoy as a guided boat dive, but the reef layout still keeps the profile interesting.
