(Excerpts from SunSentinel Newspaper) Coral Restoration Education & Dive Excusions are conducted throughout the year with FMAS. Get involved, get certified and make change to benefit our world.

If you leave from the Quallman Brage follow the stakes (240 degrees) to the reef edge. Then follow the reef edge until you either see a stake or the Berry Patch Tug on your left. The distance between the Ancient Mariner and the Berry Patch Tug is approximately 150' and the Tug to the Barge is approximately 600'. Be careful not to get your flag tangled on the wreck.
