BLUE HERON BRIDGE SHORE DIVE at PHIL FOSTER STATE PARK, RIVIERA BEACH FL
Road trip to Blue Heron Bridge for a Shore Dive to find unusual critters: batfish, fly gurnards, sea horses, frogfish, jawfish.....
This is a 1 tank 90-120 minute shallow shore dive (<25 ft).
ENTER WATER 60-90 MINUTES BEFORE SLACK HIGH TIDE (1:33 pm on 11/14)
Carlos & I will be at BHB by 11:30 am to give an orientation. We will enter the water by 12 pm.
THIS IS NOT A GUIDED DIVE; an orientation will be given & you & your buddy will dive on your own.
Call Force E the day before for a visibility report at BHB. Viz can be <6 inches so don't make the drive if the viz is bad.
You will need a Diver Down Flag. You can rent the flag/tanks/weights/other gear at Force E Scuba Center which is very near the park (155 E Blue Heron Blvd, Riviera Beach, FL. 561-845-2333).
Check out on Facebook: Blue Heron Dive Club to see the latest critters sighted.

DINNER: After the shore dive, we will meet at the Brass Ring Pub to eat & compare fish seen. Address: 200 US Highway 1, North Palm Beach Fl; Ask for the large picnic tables in the back so the group can fit :)
