Ocean Reef is a sport fisherman’s paradise: get on your boat or charter and go after the big ones and then hire a guide to take you out in the warm water of the flats to try and outsmart a wily bonefish. Five and a half miles offshore you’ll almost surely encounter sailfish and the waters are full of blue and white marlin, dolphin, shark, wahoo, blackfin tuna and amberjack depending on the season. The Gulf Stream’s only half an hour to the southwest. There’s a lot to do in these clear, azure waters. Snorkelers love to explore the shallow, offshore reefs and SCUBA diving is available in many locations for certified divers. Water clarity and temperature at ORC are as close to perfect as you’ll find in American waters. You can rent sailboats on Buccaneer Island and smaller craft at the Marina, and lessons in handling watercraft and water safety are available on our menu of services. Charters are available too, and cruises on well-appointed yachts – morning, afternoon, and at sunset – are a wonderful way to enjoy the water and leave the piloting to someone else. |
