Artificial reefs 19 in Lee County
|
Lee County has had an active
artificial reef program since the early 1990's. County staff
actively pursue grants from state, federal, and private sources
in an effort to create new artificial reefs. Artificial reefs
created by Lee County must not only attract and hold fish that
recreational fisherman enjoy catching, but must also create
viable, long-lasting marine habitat that complement the natural
ledges and outcroppings that are occasionally seen off Lee
County's coast. Artificial reefs in Lee County waters will
continue to provide diverse fishing pleasure for many years to
come. Shown below are the 19 artificial reef sites in Lee County
offshore and inshore waters. Click on the reef and you will be
taken to a separate page that has an Adobe .pdf map showing the
different depositions of material that fall within the site.
Lee County also has a working
Reef Plan document which details the history, planning and
management of all County reef sites.
