FREEDIVING Christ of the Abyss ( Key Largo ) HD

In shallow water adjacent to John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, “Christ of the Abyss” rests at a depth of approximately 25 feet at a site called the Key Largo Dry Rocks in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.
Donated to the Underwater Society of America in 1961 by Italian scuba entrepreneur Egidi Cressi, the statue is the third bronze casting of sculptor Guido Galletti’s “Il Cristo Degli Abissi,” translated in English to Christ of the Abyss and also called Christ of the Deep.
One day of adventures at Key Largo Christ of the Abyss Florida Keys discoveries holding our breath to the limit lots of marine life that didnt seem afraid letting us enjoy close interaction, couldnt ask for more. AMAZING day . Film with GoPro Hero 3 Cam by Pedro Prieto and free diver Nadine Holland .

You are all so lucky to be able to swim and dive here. The John Pennekamp park and especially the Christ of the Abyss statue are on my bucket list as a diver and freediver, and I hope my wife and I will get there someday. Thank you for filming and sharing this wonderful video.

That was awesome. I've dived the Hilma Hooker many times day and night but that was so cool. If there were mermen they would look like you. Thanks so much.

I live in Key Largo most of the year to pursue my freediving and underwater photography. One can never have too many freediving buddies. Let's go explore the reef or the Springs sometime!

I was just down there for vacation and although I'm not an experienced free diver, I was able to get down to 30 ft for 30 seconds. Saw many barracuda, Angel fish, and even a shark. I'm pretty sure the shark wasn't a nurse shark either. It was larger and was gray in color. Great video and diving!
