Quick history lesson!

Alligator Reef is named for the USS Alligator, a ship assigned to suppress the trade of slaves coming from the African coast in the 1820s. In November 1822, the Alligator was escorting a convoy of merchant ships when it ran aground on the shallow reef. Despite efforts to save the damaged ship, the United States sank the USS Alligator to prevent pirates from pillaging the remains of the boat. The Alligator Reef Lighthouse sits on Alligator Reef. The wreck of the USS Alligator is located 200 feet southwest of the lighthouse and can be seen by snorkelers and divers year-round.
