Keys After Irma

[ystrout]

How are the Florida Keys looking these days? I specifically mean the diving.

Visibility?
Coral health?
Fish population?

I may head to Florida for a 4 days vacation and wanted to dive the keys for 2 or 3 days. I was talking with someone who dove after a hurricane like 15 years ago in Cozumel/Cancun and they said that it wasn't too good.

We're going in a few weeks. If the reefs aren't so good we'll stick to the wrecks. The economy still needs our business and the Keys are a cool place even above water.

I have posted trip reprts and photos since Irma on the Florida forum

We were in Key Largo 2 weeks ago and thought it was great. It was our first time in the ocean so we have nothing to compare it to, but we saw a huge variety of marine life and are already planning a trip back.
