A portion of the pier in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea collapsed in November of 2022 due to the impacts from Hurricane Nicole. This has made fishing prohibited and has created a limited chance to experience guided Snorkel excursions around unseen areas of Anglin's Pier. Our original Tour was created over 12 years ago to complement the 1st Bio-Rock Project in the USA and today we still strive to grow and protect our beautiful reefs.
