BLUE HERON BRIDGE SHORE DIVE at PHIL FOSTER STATE PARK, RIVIERA BEACH FL

Road trip to Blue Heron Bridge for a Shore Dive to find unusual critters: batfish, fly gurnards, sea horses, frogfish, jawfish.....

This is a 1 tank 90-120 minute shallow shore dive (<25 ft).

ENTER WATER 60-90 MINUTES BEFORE SLACK HIGH TIDE (1:33 pm on 11/14)

Carlos & I will be at BHB by 11:30 am to give an orientation.  We will enter the water by 12 pm.

THIS IS NOT A GUIDED DIVE; an orientation will be given & you & your buddy will dive on your own.

Call Force E the day before for a visibility report at BHB.  Viz can be <6 inches so don't make the drive if the viz is bad.

You will need a Diver Down Flag. You can rent the flag/tanks/weights/other gear at Force E Scuba Center which is very near the park (155 E Blue Heron Blvd, Riviera Beach, FL.  561-845-2333).  

Check out on Facebook: Blue Heron Dive Club to see the latest critters sighted.

Address for shore dive:  

Phil Foster State Park, 900 East Blue Heron Boulevard, Riviera Beach, FL 33404

DINNER:  After the shore dive, we will meet at the Brass Ring Pub to eat & compare fish seen.  Address:  200 US Highway 1, North Palm Beach Fl; Ask for the large picnic tables in the back so the group can fit :)

IMPORTANT: It is a 2:45 minute drive from Key Largo.   If you take the FL Turnpike, you need a Sunpass to exit as $ tolls are not collected. It is a $100 fine for not paying the toll.
