North Dry Rocks In relation to Key Largo Dry Rocks, this is "the next reef to the north." A relatively shallow location, this reef contains the popular "Minnow Cave" - known for it's large seasonal population of glass minnows.
Famous for the "Minnow Caves", this site is a perfect example of what a patch reef has to offer. The Minnow Caves provide for some of the most extraordinary pictures and video of large grouper, snapper and other predator species in action. During the Summer months the cave, all be it a small "L" shaped tube in the coral, is filled to beyond capacity with silverside minnows. When the larger fish get hungry they swim through the cave grabbing mouthfuls of minnows and out the other side. Truly a spectacular site to see. The rest of the reef is no slouch either.
Depth range 25-35 ft.
