Dive Report 26 December


Where were you all? We had a beautiful sunrise dive! The 7:28 high tide was perfect for us entering the water at just about sunrise. The vis was twenty feet and the water temperature was seventy-five. The air temperature was seventy-two! Late December in southern Florida; I love it. Three open water students and a diver doing a refresher did their shallow water dives in great conditions. We saw a polkadot and a shortnose batfish, a big flying gurnard, a bandtail searobin, and a good-sized octopus. It was just a beautiful morning to be in the water. We had the place almost to ourselves. (Figure that.) We will be at the bridge for an 8:44 high tide on Sunday! The forecast looks real good! Bagels, cream cheese and jelly, and coffee. Get in the water, Ham
