An article in the Sun Sentinel this morning states that there is an increase in the number of scuba divers booking dives here in South Florida.

The writer speculated that these are probably divers who are coming here instead of going to the Florida Panhandle or the Florida Keys where the diving might be affected by the oil or rumors of oil.

I am a diver and the diving is good here. We have natural coral reefs right off of our beaches and the cities have sunk wrecks in various spots to create artificial reefs. Lots of the diving here is drift diving. The captain will drop you off at a spot and then you and your dive buddy drift over the reef, letting the current move you along. When you surface after 45 minutes or so, the boat is there to pick you up. You dive with flags on buoys, so the captain can track the progress of the divers.

Lots of fish, turtles and nurse sharks. The coral tends to be a little bleached out around here, but it is still great to jump in.

Come on down!
