As of June 2015, the FWC Artificial Reef Program reports. The Collier County Artificial Reef Project, the world's largest artificial reef program. This initiative will deploy materials to create (36) 500-ton reefs that will transform the ocean's underwater landscape six to 30 miles offshore in the Gulf of Mexico.

These man-made habitats vary from reef to reef. Some reefs are composed of concrete reefballs of varying sizes, bridge rubble, and old boats and retired military hardware (cleaned in accordance with Florida law). Once deployed, marine life starts colonizing the new habitat. As the reef ages and gets encrusted with algaes, barnacles, and corals, small fish colonize the reef, thus attracting larger predatory fish such as grouper and amberjack.Below is a list of artificial reefs found on the Boating and Angling Guides to the Lower Keys, Middle Keys, and Upper Keys.
The number identifying each reef is the same as the identifying number used in the Boating and Angling Guides to the Upper, Middle, and Lower Keys.There are many more artificial reefs in the offshore waters of Monroe and Miami-Dade counties that are not listed here or shown on the boating guide.
