John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park is the nation's first UNDERWATER park! Formed in the 1960's, Pennekamp Park represents over 100 square miles of mangrove shoreline, grass flats, and of course our famous coral reef. Adjacent to Pennekamp (and extending it's boundaries out to international waters) is the Key Largo National Marine Sanctuary. Both these pristine coral reef areas are protected by law against environmental abuse, guaranteeing this beautiful resource will last for many generations.
Thanks for this great video! I used to scuba and snorkel on Pennekamp back in the early 1970s. Loved the images of all the grunts, the nurse shark, grouper (pretty good size fo that shallow water), sponges, and undulating sea fans. I must try and get back there. Thanks again for the video!
