Where to dive Riviera Beach

Verified operators · No paid placement

Riviera Beach and the Lake Worth Inlet host a deep fleet of dive boats running drift dives over the Palm Beach reef line — Breakers Reef, Mizpah Wreck Trek, and the Princess Anne. Often less crowded than Jupiter and a shorter ride to offshore.

FAQ

Real answers to the questions divers actually ask about Riviera Beach.

What's the difference between Jupiter and Lake Worth Inlet diving?
Jupiter's sites sit a little further out and the Gulf Stream is closer — bigger animals, faster drift. Lake Worth Inlet sites (Breakers, Mizpah Wreck Trek, Princess Anne) are typically shallower and a shorter ride, with a thriving wreck trek you can hit in one dive.
Is the Mizpah Wreck Trek beginner-friendly?
Yes. The Mizpah Wreck Trek runs 80–95 ft along three wrecks (Mizpah, PC-1170, Amaryllis) and is doable with Advanced Open Water and good drift experience.
When does the Princess Anne wreck dive?
Year-round at ~95 ft. Best conditions come with light west wind and a north-flowing current of less than 2 kt.
