Famous Yellow Brick Road Beach Dive

  • Margaritaville Hollywood Resort 1111 N. Ocean Dr. Hollywood, FL USA (map)

You've heard about this incredible site, now you can visit it and enjoy its wonders just off the beach in Hollywood. Once a path through the reefs for an outfall pipe, this structure now serves as habitat for in incredible diversity of marine life, including reef fish, tropical species, shark, rays, lobster, and countless others. Larger fish traverse the area in their circuits north and south, so expect to see tarpon, amber jack, mackeral, and small tuna.

We'll meet in the grassy patch in front of the bandshell on the Broadwalk on Johnson St. You can drop your gear with the team and park in the Margaritaville parking garage or nearby for a reasonable fee. After a short briefing, we'll wade into the surf and swim the few meters past the surf to the first reef line. The Yellow Brick Road starts about there but because it is a narrow entry, we'll have some veteran divers lead the way.

Bring a camera because you will doubtless see a lot to remember. Those who wish to lobster may also bring gear, but make sure you have a valid license and a lobster gauge.
