The Flower Gardens are located 4.25 nautical miles south of the Palm Beach Inlet. This shallow ledge contains an inside and outside ledge drop. The former has large amounts of sea life and an amazing ecosystem. The Outside edge has several fingers and starts at 70 feet and slopes to 42 feet. This side contains large fish in few numbers.
Sponges and corals along with schools of grunts help to make this dive filled with life. Small, easy to follow ledges provide homes and protection for juvenile creatures. On a sunny day, the rich and vivid colors of this area make it an amazing sight for divers.
