Shark Reef was not named for the abundant amount of sharks on this section. Nope... Shark Reef from the air looks like an outline of... you guessed it a shark. It is part of the third reef line 3 miles South of the Hillsboro Inlet. Due to it's distance many operations don't frequent this reef very often. However, we do because it is not visited very often and our customers routinely find turtles, eels, octopus, tropicals and lots of lobster.
