Atlantic City Artificial Reef
Atlantic City Artificial Reef
12.2 Nautical Miles off Atlantic City, 5.00 sq miles
Depth: 55-95 ft [download]
The empty areas in the north and center of this reef contain a number of Army tanks (not shown.) Brightliners and Redbirds were also sunk in this reef, but are not shown as they are assumed to be gone after 20 years.
The Atlantic City Reef is one of the oldest artificial reef sites in New Jersey. Reef-building activities at this site date back to 1935.
All manner of concrete, steel, and stone rubble from dredging, demolition projects, and other construction is used as artificial reef materials. This material is generally available at very low cost or free from construction companies who are more than happy to get rid of it. Transportation costs determine where this material is used by the Reef Program.
