Was there in ’03 while on a Joint Federal Task Force with DEA, USCS, and RCMP. Great place to dive, also did I believe it was Cable Beach.

I was there back in 2003 and the viz was great, wonder what is causing the lowering of it????

Great site for training dives and building confidence with follow on dives. There is an abundance of aquatic life to see, photograph, catch (Save the reef, Eat more Lionfish), also some wrecks to explore.
