Glad you had a dive-filled day Kevin- I know how the viz can be from the shore there- too cool that you got to see some stuff....

People don't realize it, but we have GREAT local diving here in the Fort Myers area. I absolutely love diving the Gulf! You might consider checking out the Volunteer Scientific Research Team. We make fish count dives in the Gulf on a regular basis.
No single raindrop believes it is responsible for the flood.

hey walter how are ya, deans dive shop runs occasional trips out therePeople don't realize it, but we have GREAT local diving here in the Fort Myers area. I absolutely love diving the Gulf!

using the boat I mentioned, they run it as a three dive trip to get the most bang for your buck as they do run out about 1 and 1/2 hours to get to these sites.
I was discouraged with my first few gulf dives but after seeing what a good day
can be I'm gonna be watchin for more of these trips.

I've known Brent since before his brother, Dean, opened the shop, yes he's been running trips to the Gulf for many, many years. Brent's a good guy, keep giving him business, but you still might want to look into VSR if you want to dive the Gulf regularly.
