Two dives today with Kyalami. Spadefish & Lighthouse. 77 F water temp, 40-80’ viz (varied significantly), mild N current. Sunny skies, low 80s air temp, 1-2’ seas. Beautiful day above & below the water!

See you tomorrow !!

I'm terrible at photography and Sunday's dives with JDC had alternating patches of viz from 40 - 70ft. Current was easy at 1.5knts and temps stayed right at 75. Saw Goliaths, turtles, a nurse, those damm reefies, and several lionfish. Just 2 photos below. A lionfish with nice 24 inch red grouper way behind under a ledge and @Divin'Papaw & me infront of the almost completely demolished US1 bridge in Jupiter (construction's moving Fast!)

As always, it was a pleasure diving with you @Johnoly! You once again outdid yourself on the surface interval grub. Delicious kabobs hit the spot between dives! Thank you!

@CosbySweater There are some nice size black grouper out there when season starts next week. This was on Lighthouse or Spadefish (don’t recall which) last Sat 4/22/23.

Question…
I haven’t dived out of Jupiter in a few years now.
I may end up back there at JDC in July ish.
Does anyone know if they’ll be ok w me strapping up independent twins?
I do t want to reconfigure my kit for two dives and I don’t want a buddy for the day as I’m used to diving solo.
Cheers
