Their divers see pristine reefs and intact corals unlike dive travelers who visit the most popular destinations. The dives are generally easy with little or no current except for a few drift dives. The visibility is typically 50-80 feet due to the amount of plankton in the water which accounts for the abundance of marine life. New divers will be overwhelmed by the schools of brightly colored fish, the abundance of colorful sponges and the number of reef creatures on a wide variety of sites. Seahorses and frog fish are prolific here and can be found on many dives.
Spotted drum are plentiful and many can be seen on every dive.
Experienced divers and especially photographers will be amazed at the variety of rare creatures found here including two species of bat fish, the shortnose and the red lipped, that live in the sandy areas of several sites. Split lure frog fish as well as the very common longlure frog fish are also in the shallow sand. Red banded lobster are often found deep at several sites. Porcelain crabs, golden coral shrimp, spoon nosed eels, viper morays, brotula and other macro subjects will also keep a photographer busy. We plan to have an exciting meeting with 30 hours of interesting CME, great diving and other outdoor activities.
