Anyone interested? Intend to dive there on the in coming tide so as to get a drift dive (or two). The plan is to swim out to the end and drift back to the kiddies pool. Wanting to be in the water for the first dive around about 0830ish.

Interesting dive. The way the tide was running into the bay we decided to swim out to the end of the jetties and drift back to the kiddies pool. Fantastic rush as usual. Plenty of grouper and redfish. The only downside was my dive flag being caught by people fishing from a boat! First I new of it was as I’m heading to the surface (luckily only a few feet) It certainly wouldn’t have been pleseant hitting the surface from 70 ft down! They free’d me and no harm done - this time. A point everyone should note when going to do what we did - always check the boat traffic in the area.

I wish that fish and game, or the harbor police (or what ever they are called) would enforce that rule. I bought a new dive knife just for that reason. I just hope it never happens to any divers.

Unfortunately we did not see anyone there. We wondered around for a while before and between our dives, but its a pain to meet people when there are no identifiers. We should all go in on a bunch of divebuddy banners to lower the cost. It would make it so much easier. Had a great dive though and hopefully next time we can meet up. As always, love diving here!
