av8er23:Mike, you are pretty familiar with St. Andrews jetties right?
If so what would be the best time to dive in that sat.
seeing how you'd want to try to get in 2 tanks of diving there, I'd show up an hour or two before the scheduled high tide so you have time to gear up, etc and still have time to perhaps try a 2nd dive before the currents pick back up from the tide going out....
the tide charts aren't always 100% accurate on time.
I'm not an expert on St Andrews like some folks here are, but that's a general rule you can apply to any of the jetties in that area. Maybe somebody that dives there all the time can give more specific "local knowledge" on how accurate the currents are with the printed tide time schedules.
Note: you're high tide time 8:47am. Check to see what time they open the gates first. I can't remember if it's 8am or 9am. This might hinder the "get there way earlier" approach.
