Join us to do 2 ADVANCED DEEP WRECK DIVES in the afternoon of Jan 24th (11:30 check in) to hopefully see the aggregating Lemon Sharks.
The Lemon Shark dives are deep dives (88 ft) on manmade wrecks. THESE ARE VERY ADVANCED DIVES: You have to be able to descend quickly as it will be a hot drop in open ocean and you have to do a free descent & stay with the group.
Join us to learn the latest scientific information on Hamlets & learn how to identify Hamlets found in the TWA.
Check in is 8 AM
Come join us for a drift dive on a deeper reef (<60 ft) and have the boat pick you up when you are done. 2nd dive will be on a shallower reef & might not be a drift dive (depends on conditions)
Call the Key Dives to reserve your spot at 305 664 2211
Key Dives is located at MM 80 at Bud N Mary's Marina.
We are very fortunate to host Dr. Benjamin Victor during our upcoming 100 Fish ID class on Thursday, Oct 2nd at 7 pm at REEF HQ. Dr. Victor will give a lecture on "New Information on Gobies & Blennies". The discussion will include where to find the different species & troublesome ID's (we can all use this help!).Dr. Victor is diving with us next week to collect goby & blenny specimens for his research to genetically define these species.
Fish ID lecture focusing on grunts: their habitats, diet, reproduction & cool facts; along with basic & advanced Fish ID reviews to help you correctly identify them while diving.
