Deep Palm Beach drift wreck with advanced penetration options.
Miller Lite is a deep Palm Beach County freighter wreck that sits upright in blue water and is usually dived as an advanced drift wreck rather than a static mooring-style exploration. The attraction is a mix of depth, steel structure, and fish life on a compact artificial reef. Divers typically work the outer hull and superstructure for jacks, barracuda, turtles, and larger wreck residents, while trained teams may consider the engine-room spaces only with the overhead-diving skills and equipment that the wreck demands.

Depth range, seasonality, and planning context.
Reported Depth
30m - 50m
Depth Note
Wreck reported in the 30–50 m (100–165 ft) range.
Best Season
Miller Lite can be dived year-round, with the best windows coming when Gulf Stream visibility is clean and sea state is calm enough for comfortable wreck drift profiles.
Typical Conditions
Expect blue-water drift conditions, a deep sand-to-wreck profile, and variable but often solid Palm Beach visibility with current that can shape the whole dive.
Hazards, restrictions, and access requirements.
Key Hazards
Safety Notes
Depth range is suitable for advanced/technical profiles. Wreck penetration into the engine room adds overhead risk and requires appropriate training and equipment.
Access Restrictions
Access is by Palm Beach charter boat, and dives are normally planned for advanced or technical divers comfortable with depth and drift-wreck procedures.
Legal Notes
The wreck is an artificial reef site. Standard Florida wreck-diving and fishing-area awareness applies, and penetration should be limited to divers with appropriate overhead training.
Community notes to help plan your visit.
Scuba Diving
Advanced and technical divers are best suited due to the 30–50 m depth range; there is an engine room that can be penetrated.
Freediving
Not a practical freedive site because the wreck sits well below casual breath-hold depth and is normally dived as an advanced scuba wreck.
Snorkeling
Unsuitable for snorkeling because access is by offshore boat and the wreck lies in deep current-swept water.
