Atlantis Dive Center

Captain Slate's Atlantis Dive Center is the OLDEST dive shop in the Keys; in business for 34 years! We are the FIRST dive operation you see in Key Largo (in the Keys for that matter)! The "landmark" A-Frame marks the spot! The second you exit our new Jewfish Creek Bridge our highway store is directly on the left side of the road, a beautiful A-Frame building with a David Dunleavy Endangered Species mural covering the entire building. The A-Frame underwent a facelift in 2009, conducted by David Dunleavy. Dunleavy’s Endangered Species murals can be seen in the U.S., the Bahamas Islands, Australia and a local mural at the History of Diving Museum in Islamorada. Dunleavy’s Art and conservation commitment have been praised by divers and world renowned explore Jean Michele Cousteau. Dunleavy and Cousteau partnered with the Oceans for Youth Foundation to bring environmental awareness programs and materials to children of all ages. His conservation message has reached an even broader audience with his collaboration with Cousteau and the Ocean for Youth Foundation.

Like Dunleavy’s previous walls, the Key Largo mural is designed to increase global awareness and stewardship, mainly in children. Divers and Island lovers alike will be able to celebrate this mural for many years to come. Dunleavy hopes the mural will become a landmark and serve as a constant reminder and inspire people to help protect these pristine environments for future generations as we continue exploring our amazing ocean planet.
