We
kick off our 2022 dive season at
the Blue Heron Bridge dive site at
Phil Foster Park in Riviera Beach
for our annual season opener
event. This site is world-famous,
named the Best Shore Dive in the
U.S. by Scuba Diving Magazine.
There is so much to see here just
a flat, easy walk from shore. Even
though this is the Intracoastal
Waterway and not the ocean, swift
currents moving through daily
ensure the marine life is always
varied and abundant. Seas are
normally calm and clear. We have
seen goliath groupers, manatees,
bait balls of silversides, huge
yellow cushion starfish, 9-armed
starfish, batfish, frogfish,
octopus, eels, seahorses, numerous
crabs and abundant schools of
tropical fish including Atlantic
spadefish.
The
fun begins at 8:30 a.m. when
divers meet at the covered
pavilion next to the restrooms
on the west side of the park. At
12:00 noon we’ll fire up the
grill for hamburgers, hot dogs,
salads and all the fixin’s. The
event will conclude with a
raffle of fabulous dive-related
prizes. Feel free to also bring
used dive gear to buy, sell or
swap!
All
this is FREE to members but you
must RSVP to Amber at
