I am reaching out for suggestions.

Please name some of your favorite Florida (and the Keys) shipwreck dives.

I have dove the Eagle. I have done a small amount of research on the Duane, Vandenburg, and Oriskany.

I am sure there are more shipwrecks out there that are not as well known.

Please offer opinions.

If you have a favorite link, it would be helpful
 
I've dove the Spiegel Groove, the Bibb, the Duane and the Eagle.

I've also been to a bunch of NC wrecks and a few of the MD/NJ wrecks.

The Duane sits pretty high in my book.

It is upright. It has got a fair amount of wildlife on it.
 
Oriskany, Speigel Grove, Duane, Baja California, the Liberty ships
 
Only wreck I've dived of West Palm Beach is Toy Box, a sunken barge full of concrete blocks, plenty of fish around
 
The MV Castor off Boynton is 258ft of joy. Lots of goliaths, big jacks and bait ballin'
114ft in the sand
 
Avocet, Pete Tide II, Anteres, Brass Wreck, Russian Freighter (San Pablo), USS Massachusetts (if you catch it right), and of course the Oriskany, all off Pensacola.
 
Thanks for the references. If anyone else has any, keep em comming please. I am starting to look them up for informational purposes. I will post what I find.

This one got my attention because I like to find things:

Baja California in Ft. Myers/Naples Florida
