I'd like to report about this nice spot I dove on a mini family vacation at Deerfield Beach FL. It is called Turtle Reef located about 150 feet offshore with a depth of about 25 ft deep.

The get to the reef you must enter the water taking as a point of reference the space between the two Whitehall South Condo buildings as shown in this map. Located at 2800 South Ocean Boulevard Boca Raton, FL 33432

Then swim in straight line about 150 feet

Even though this is considered mainly an snorkeling site I fully recommend to bring your full freediving gear or at least a full body wetsuit and weights. Also of extreme importance is to have a diving flag.

Here are some nice pictures of the site I found in the web.
