Neptune Memorial Reef
The construction of the Neptune Memorial Reef was inspired by the concept of a lost city; the reef is also called the Atlantis Memorial Reef. The reef lies about 40 feet below the surface and it is located roughly 3 miles off the coast of Miami.
Beyond its lost city concept, the city is quite macabre; it is used as a sort of an underwater cemetery for sea burials while also serving as an artificial reef. The Neptune Memorial Reef has been a popular destination for divers for many years; its 16 acres of territory provides plenty to keep them entertained.
