I was in West Palm this past weekend and just wanted to report that the Blue Heron Bridge is back open for diving. A lot of us have continued to dive the area over the past couple of years, but now it's completely legal again. You just need to stay out of the swimming area and need to carry a dive flag. Phil Foster park is very nice now and the diving is very convenient. There are fresh water showers but the water wasn't on yet this weekend. The marine life at the bridge is very good. We had seahorses, octopus, scorpionfish, etc. No frogfish, flying gurnards, sea robins, or star gazers this trip, however. I'll have to keep looking!
I dove the bridge twice (Friday night and Saturday morning), both with Jim Abernethy. He and I wore full face masks with communications so we could talk back and forth as we found critters. We then had two students with receivers attached to their masks so we could explain to them what they were seeing. It worked out really nicely!
Here are a couple of photos:
