Dearfield Beach

[lostplanetairman]

Going to Florida on Monday and Tuesday, any good boats or dive ops operating out of the general area on weekdays? Say from Pompano Beach to Delray Beach. This may be a regular trip for me as my wife has to travel here and I get to go. Got to find something to do.

Out of Pompano Beach you can try Parrot Island Scuba and South Florida Diving Headquarters. I'm not aware of any boats in Deerfield, but Pompano is just a "hop skip and a giant stride" south.

West Palm is about 20 to 30 minutes north of Delray. Try www.oceanquestscuba.com if you want to drive a little farther north. You won't be disappointed.

Capt. Tony and the Diversity is in Deerfield. Highly recommend him.

There's also the Lady Go running for Dixie Divers. Diversity and Lady Go have kinda long runs to get to Boca inlet.

Kinda long?? ..... BAAH!!
Personally I think it is just right.
Gives you time to hook-up, check-out, suit-up on the way out,
and stow gear on the way back.
I much prefer the social time vs. other quickie-dockie boats.

That and the immensely fun navigable waterways to get to some of the Deerfield docks.

Tony and the Diversity is always my first choice in the area.

The three best operations were named. Tony, Parrot Island, and Lady Go Diver.

I dove with LadyGoDiver, Parrot Island, and South Florida back in November. I would highly recommend all 3 operators. Parrot Island is problably the most accessable operator, as he has a free parking lot right next to the slip, but I did hear that South Florida just put one of their boats at the boca inlet also.
