Shore Diving Palm Beach

[The Business]

I am going to be staying at the Ritz-Carlton later this week for a convention. Can anyone tell if there are any good shore dives in the area?

Hi. I found a longtime ago but I’m not all that sure if it’s legal in that site. I’m from Miami and are rules are just keep 300’or 300yards away from any rod&reel fishing people.

“I came across this tread and had to respond. there is some great beach diving just north of Miami and i can give you some details: The place is called Lauderdale By the sea and theres plenty to see there! Two weeks ago we were there and swam with a pod of spotted dolphins. Go north from miami to Lauderdale on I-95 get of at the commercial avenue exit go east to the beach. this will take you right there. When you get there youll see a pier swim straight out from the pier but stay 300 ft away so you dont catch a hook in the back. theres 4 reef lines there the first being only 50-75 yrds from the shore the last 1000 yrds off from shore the reef host thousands of tropicals and lobster are prevelant however the season is currently closed.
spearfishing is allowed but should be done with caution due to numerous divers and swimmers. The vis is almost always perfect and If you want weve got webcams of the area on our site. have a great time and enjoy this beautiful dive. p.s. Please pick up any sinkers you see they are everywhere and we recently removed 382.5 lbs in two dives.”

Found it on deeperblue.com or maybe
