SANTA ROSA COUNTY ARTIFICIAL REEFS

Santa Rosa County is spending 1.2 million dollars from oil spill funds to place new artificial reefs off Navarre Beach, and more are on the way. The structures are from 6 to 15 feet tall and more than 500 concrete and steel artificial reefs will be placed about a mile offshore. Not only will the reefs attract fish, they will also draw divers and anglers to the area as well.
