Underwater Update

 

Did you know
you can charter the dive boat?

It's the same as chartering a fishing boat, a yacht, or a limousine.

For a flat rate, we'll provide a captain and required equipment. You just need a valid 'C-card,' and a dive buddy or 2 - actually, up to 11. You can pick the dive sites, the depth and the music.

Call for prices and various options.

We have great 'wreckreational' diving and we'd like to put some pictures and video online.

With that in mind, we've ordered an underwater camera for use on the dive boat, and plan to offer a photography course this summer. In fact, we're thinking about an underwater photo contest. Let me know if you'd enter.

By the way, if you're not on our email list, please enter your address in the boxes below. We are planning to send updates on the store, the local diving, and a new travel program that should be in place this month. You can 'opt-out' of the list at any time.

Miami-Dade County has several designated reef sites that lie parallel to the coast.

From our dock at Haulover Park marina, you can dive the oil platforms, located just north of Golden Beach, or the Conception, located in the Sunny Isles reef site. A little to the south is the Miami Beach Wreck Trek, a relatively shallow (50-60 feet) trail of material with a pair of army tanks at its southern end. The Wreck Trek is part of the Anchorage reef site, which is deeper (80+), but contains a variety of ships, like the Rio Miami. Click here for a glimpse of an artificial reef with an attitude. The County is planning to do some work on the site in 2007. For more information on the Miami Beach Wreck Trek, check out www.MiamiBeachDiving.com.

The Anchorage site also contains a ship called the Tortuga, which was sunk during the closing sequence of the Cindy Crawford/Billy Baldwin epic, Fair Game. Beyond Government Cut is the Key Biscayne Special Management Zone with more than a dozen ships and barges, such as the Orion, Proteus and Doc DeMilly.
