Well, we've decided not to do it, primarily due to other logistical reasons, but it still is a very interesting question, how exactly does a long but VERY shallow dive (<20', or even <15') affect you, compared to a more "normal" dive?

No real studies have been done, to my knowledge.
I had that same question when they opened the underwater resort in the Keys... I never found an answer then either

Had a nice dive at the bridge last night. High tide was at 7:52. We got in at 7:00, and I did just under 2 hours. The current got really strong once it starte heading out.
Vis was pretty good. Didn't find a lot of stuff, but what I did find made the dive worth it. Here are some shots.
Maritigrella crozieri
Bandtail Searobin Prionotus ophryas
One of several octopi out last night
Spottedfin Tonguefish Symphurus diomdianus. Allison found this. Thanks Allison.
Flabellina Verta after laying it’s eggs.
Not sure which one, but it is a Dondice
A very large and bright Flabellina Verta.
A Head Shield Slug orgy. I think those are eggs to the right.

What size is that spotted tonguefish? Size of a nudi? 2 inches? 8? Looks kinda like a missing link between a bristleworm and a flounder.

We are diving with American Dream Saturday afternoon. Don't think I can do the bridge in the morning too. Was thinking about LBTS, but it looks like everyone decided on the bridge instead.

Anne corrected me on one of my ID's.
This shot is actually at Flabellina cf. bandeli.
