Sombrero Reef

This is a spur-and-groove coral reef, sitting on the outer banks offshore of Vaca Key, characterized by large fingers of coral, separated by narrow sandbeds.

Reviewed By smlscorpio65 - Indialantic, United States

If your in the Keys this is an absolute Snorkeling Paradise. This reef is right on the edge of the barrier reef, and to reach it you catch a boat tour from the Marathon area on Vaca Key. We took Spirit Snorkeling out of Marathon and Captain Mike and Mate Jenna were great. If you have your own boat it is marked by a good size lighthouse so it is easy to find. Lots of mooring pins to tie to. Short boat ride from Captain Pip's Marina.where you can rent a boat reasonable if you choose. We were there around 9:30 am on a Saturday morning and spots were open. By 11 am they were full. Don't cheat yourself and go on a calm day because this reef is great. Visibility and water clarity is very good. We saw tons of parrotfish, from Yellowtail Parrotfish, Princess Parrotfish and Rainbow Parrotfish. We also found Grouper, Yellowtail Snapper, Gray Snapper, nice variety of Angelfish,stingray and my girlfriends favorite(as she squeezed my hand tight) a good size Barracuda. This goes down as one of my best snorkeling adventures.
