Lauderdale By the Sea
Community Information:
The Town's most-valued natural resource is a thriving coral reef teeming with colorful marine life within 100 yards of the beach, which earned the Town official recognition from the Broward County Commission as the "Shore Diving Capital" of Florida." One of the Town's reefs is also the final resting place for the underwater remains of the SS Copenhagen, an 18th century cargo steamer that sank in 1900. The shipwreck was designated as an official underwater archaeological preserve -- one of only 10 in the entire state -- by the Florida Division of Historical Resources in June 1994.
