This artificial reef is named after an underwater steel pipeline that is now broken up into pieces. There are several finger reefs to be found here interspersed with sand patches.

The Pipe is a good site for beginners and intermediate level divers.
Be sure to check out the reefs off the east and west sides of the pipe as they
offer up a lot of eels and multiple nooks and crannies where critters hide. I
have dove this site 6-7 times and found the visibility to be quite varied,
anywhere from 30-70 feet. I also did the Pipe as a shore dive, it is a long
swim so make sure you are up for the challenge!
