“Picture yourself over 100 miles from land, in the middle of the Gulf of Mexico. There lies three of the most beautiful and wild places in all the world, the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary. Manta rays, whale sharks, coral heads bigger than cars, hundreds of species of fish and invertebrates…This place teems with life! ”

The Flower Garden Banks were discovered by snapper and grouper fishermen in the late 1800′s. They named the banks after the brightly colored sponges, plants, and other marine life they could see on the colorful reefs below their boats.
