Wednesday, Sept. 20, 2017 - First dive inside Peacock1 post hurricane Irma. We arrived at 9:45 am., the water was still in shade, but had scummy algae floating on top. We were told that below was crystal clear. There were many, many trees down from the entry to the park (the parking lots spaces at Orange were filled with cut up trees making parking there very difficult) all the way down to Peacock.

The boardwalk to Peacock was also filled with debris.

The new steps are nice, but the platform makes it very difficult for sidemount divers to gear up without being in the water to do so. Not liking that new configuration, though very appreciative of all the hard work and investment of the volunteers who continually maintain them.

Once descended, as the only divers there, the waters were truly pristine. Graham and I took the goldline the backway to Challenge. Beautiful dive.
