One of Jupiter's most popular ledge systems, named for a distinctive cut in the reef face. Massive barrel sponges and purple sea fans line the ledge, and green sea turtles cruise by on nearly every dive. A reliable first stop for operators running two-tank morning trips.

A series of swimthroughs and overhangs carved into the Jupiter reef tract. Nurse sharks rest underneath the ledges, and lobster and moray eels hide in every crevice. Navigation through the tunnels is straightforward, but buoyancy control matters here.

A deeper section of the Jupiter reef where the Gulf Stream current can run strong. Known for attracting large pelagics, spotted eagle rays, and the occasional hammerhead shark. Best dived when current is moderate and visibility is high.

A shallow, colorful reef loaded with soft corals, sponges, and sea whips. The dense coral coverage makes this one of the most photogenic sites on the Jupiter reef tract. Excellent for underwater photography at any skill level.

An easy, shallow reef that operators frequently use for newer divers and checkout dives. Visibility is typically good, and the reef is covered with tropical fish, small reef sharks, and the occasional turtle. A relaxed drift with minimal current most days.
