Less than a mile off the coast of Grayton Beach State Park in Walton County, in the emerald waters of the Gulf of Mexico, lies a magical underwater world only accessible by boat and with scuba gear.
For the ones who get to explore the Underwater Museum of Art, it’s a memorable, unique experience. The idea came about when Allison Wickey, an artist and avid diver, suggested an artificial reef at a Cultural Arts Alliance of Walton County board meeting.
“There’s so much to see out there. It really is beautiful the flora and fauna you can see. You may come across spotted eagle rays, tons of fish and beautifully colored plants like purple sea fans. It’s fun to explore the nooks and crannies,” says Allison.
