Rainbow Reef is ready to take diving charters out. Rainbow took a 46 footer out today with staff members and checked out reefs and wrecks, nothing remarkable was reported.

The Marriott and Key West Inn are ready for guests

Rainbow Reef Open for diving
Are they letting tourists down that way yet? Might be a good time to get together with friends and schedule a weekend trip. It's been a few years since I've been on your boat.

Not letting anyone in except residents as of this morning. (Monday Sept 18)
 
Are you back down there now, Jim???

No, I was waiting to see what Maria was doing.
 
The check point in Florida City ends to tonight. Tomorrow anyone can enter the Keys. There are areas in the Middle & Lower Keys that are restricted to residents and will have their own check points.
There are still boiled water notices.

Ocean Divers is running a post-Irma appreciation dive trip Sat. Other ops are ready to dive. Some still need time to re-build & YOUR SUPPORT. We all want you back!

Great news!! Best thing you can encourage visitors to do is post trip reports, here, on FB, instagram and everywhere. Once divers see live reports being posted by divers,,they'll come running to see what's new and changed underwater. The new keys slogan should be " It's a WHOLE NEW REEF in the keys !! "
