One of the stipulations in the sale contract was continuing to allow public access. While it has been allowed, it is so disincentivized such that it isn’t really an option. It isn’t (wasn’t?) a place where I’d happily leave things in my vehicle either, but I haven’t been since 2015ish.Ouch. I could just charter a boat for an entire class for less than that. Or fly to Cozumel.
As they say, the best diving in Texas is in Mexico!
