Welcome to Neptune Memorial Reef™; it’s unlike any other dive site. At 60 feet below the surface, spanning a quarter of an acre, the underwater city inspired by the mythological city of Atlantis, comes to life.

Massive sculptures and statues are surrounded by 44 columns, and scattered around the heart of this sacred place are 200 plots housing cremated remains of those who choose this as their final resting place.

“There’s not anything in the world like it,” said Drew Johnston, a dive captain.
