    South Canyon

    Description: Shallow first reef tract with old dredged "canyon" (less than 2 feet of relief). Threatened Staghorn coral present, as well as other hard corals, gorgonians and sponges. Numerous fish also present due to relief compared to adjacent reef areas.

    Depth: 15 feet

    Number of Buoys: Three permitted; two planned for fall 2009 installation

    Sponsors:

    We still need sponsors for the installation of one more buoy at this site, as well as future maintenance requirements for all three buoys. Learn about our Adopt-a-Buoy program if you would like to help!
