Every time I ask the same question on another forum I get the same answer. No shore diving. When I want to shore dive around the Keys, I dive the bridge piers, I prefer the old bridge piers over the new. I find a lot of lobsters and some times see quite large fish. One word of advice is to know the tide times, the currents are more than one can handle.
But you can’t beat what Latitude Adjustment said, and don’t forget I’m from Georgia and I’ll dive in anything once.
