The SeaTech Ledges are natural reef formations located just south of the Erojax, featuring deeply undercut ledges covered with coral and invertebrates.

Starting about 1,200-1,800 feet offshore (roughly two pier lengths), they form the west-facing wall of the first reef and run north to south.

This is a more challenging shore dive than the Erojax due to the longer surface swim, but the dramatic ledge formations make it worth the effort!

How to Get There

Park at the Dania Pier parking lot located at 300 N Beach Rd, Dania Beach, FL 33004.

Reach the beach from the southern most point of the parking lot and find the black flag in front of the pink tower. You can enter the water here.

From here, swim north east until you're in front of this navy blue tower, and 1.25 pier lengths out.

What You'll See

The ledges create depths ranging from about 25 feet on the sandy bottom west of the reef to 14 feet on top of the reef. These are some of the highest reef ledges within beach diving distance in South Florida, and the undercut structure creates perfect habitat for marine life.

You can expect to see lobsters, hogfish, grouper, colorful tropicals, sea cucumbers, octopus, nurse sharks, moray eels, and rays. The ledge formations create natural hiding spots and overhangs where sea life congregates.

During lobster season (with proper licensing), this is a popular hunting spot. Spearfishing is also permitted at this site.

Safety Considerations

The main safety consideration is the long surface swim—make sure you're physically prepared and properly conditioned before attempting this dive. Use a dive flag as required by Florida law.

Like the Erojax, expect boat traffic overhead as many divers access these ledges from boats. The ledges run north-south, making navigation relatively straightforward, but currents can be mild to moderate, so plan your dive accordingly and be aware of conditions.
