Did the east side today, and the viz was around 10-15 the whole dive (a little nav practice never killed anyone 
) and a little cooler at 84. Milky, and quite a few jellies for the east side. The current was a little strong at times, too. We did find our favorite seahorses, so you get another video lol. I hope that it is better on Sunday morning! Missing our dive buddies today

Hello everyone, my buddy and I are planning on visiting West Palm and plan to dive the BHB this coming sunday. It is a short drive from Fort Myers (according to google) and it looks like a great time. I have two questions. First are night dives allowed to be done at the bridge? and two do the tides matter for diving the bridge and if so which tide is best?
Sorry for the possibly easy answer questions. This is kind of last minute lol

BHB is tide dependent and usually the dives are around the high slack tides. There is a free planned night dive Sunday the 21st offered by Pura Vida Dive. You would need to go to their store on Singer Island to do paperwork, etc. Hi tide Sunday morning is at 7am and likely somebody will be diving. Sunday night the hi tide is 7:23pm and there will be a group from the store diving along with other groups. There is also a night dive on Monday sponsored by Force E just down Blue Heron west of the bridge. Check tides at www.saltwatertides.com Use Port of Palm Beach as it's a short distance away. The beach closes at sunset normally, so night dives are with permission or by boat. If you get lucky, you might see one of these guys!
You can night dive, but the beach is closed, so you can't night dive. Since the beach is closed, you could night dive from a boat any time or dive when a dive shop has received permission from the local govt to do so. As Jimw mentioned, next week there's a night dive by PV on Sunday and one on Monday by Force-E. Also, you are expected to be out of the parking lot by 10pm no matter what.
