Brevard reefs are too far out to allow good beach diving, although fine beach dives can be made off Wabasso Beach in Indian River County south of Sebastian Inlet. Several miles off the Brevard coast lie some of the best hunting areas along the east coast, with an abundance of spiny lobster and fish. Although the clearer water off Sebastian Inlet is more popular for hunting and sightseeing, some of the most bountiful hunting locations are found outside Port Canaveral.

Many divers prefer taking their own boats on scuba excursions.
The following reminders will help ensure a safe, fun-filled outing. Make sure the boat and all equipment is in perfect working condition and all regulation emergency gear is aboard. Brief everyone aboard as to equipment locations. Bring along at least one other person who is an experienced boater. Whenever there are divers in the water, display the Alpha Bravo flag to indicate that the boat is not under way and the Diver Down flag to warn of divers in the area.
