Based out of South Florida, I have a passion for scuba diving, paddleboarding, and outdoor adventures. I am originally from the Philadelphia, PA area where I dove in some cold quarries, but always preferring to be here in the warm waters of South Florida. Come join me on some diving adventures as we explore the reefs of South Florida and the Florida Keys.

Awesome visibility after so much raining. I was there on the previous sunday Jun/09 and was pretty good too, we saw 1 small nursery shark, and lots of puffy fish. Nice video :) And of course we went to the whiskey bar on the end of the park 😅😊
I am sorry for you difficult week Doug. If you would like someone to shore dive with the week of the June 18, we will be coming to Lauderdale just for the shore dives. Best of wishes.
Also, after reading up on this, it appears Florida reefs are dying rapidly. But go ahead and keep voting for people that don't give a crap about the environment. Such a shame.
I'm pretty shocked at how cloudy the water is. It hasn't rained significantly in a month, and yet the water looks so cloudy. Does the water ever get clear there like the Caribbean or is it always this murky? It remains that the Bahamas have far better water quality than the SE coast of Florida. Florida will never clean up the pollution. In 1850 survey reports from the US army show the water in Fort L was crystal clear even in all the inland waterways. Florida is an eco disaster.
I was looking for a structure that I call the Volkswagen Coral because it's shaped like a VW Bug. It's a little north of Oakland Park Blvd out from about the 3rd building up on the Galt Ocean Mile. It's always been my destination when I go out off Oakland Park Blvd.

Thanks for the great videos. I’m visit sunny Florida often and stay nearby to Dania Beach, in Hallandale. Are there any local shops in the area that or clubs that dive there regularly?
Best to Google shops in the area you’ll be around and go to their webpage or social media for a list of their upcoming dives. Also, on Meetup app there are posted dives for South Florida Beach Divers, Nitrogen Junkies, Force-e Divers
I enjoyed your video of diving Fort Lauderdale beach. I visit this area often and dive with American Dream when I’m in town. I’ve never done any shore diving and curious if there are any groups or clubs in this area scheduled shore diving that an individual such as myself can join when I’m in the area.Thanks for the remora footage.

Short questions here from Germany, Is the permanent surface buoy mandatory for dives in the US? And how much drag does it cause? I could imagine that you could possible need significant more air?
Here in Florida it’s mandatory to have the red ‘diver down’ flag, either with the diver or displayed from a dive boat. With larger groups, it’s best to have more than one flag as the group will likely separate based on experience. The flag creates a little bit of drag, but nothing significant where you need more air. Actually it a good indicator of how strong the current is
@@OceansBlue333 thank you for the quick response and good know in case we will dive in Florida. Great channel and looking forward to more with you an your guys... Happy Eastern
What type of angelfish are the large ones? Beautiful and sad at same time... lots of old dead coral but also plenty of life fighting on and trying to persevere in these quickly changing times. Thanks for sharing.
Never heard of LBTS... Too old to beach dive anymore... prefer to put my kit together in a boat or dinghy then put on in the water... Notwithstanding very nice to watch dive vid... Fair Winds...
I grew up diving all along there! Sad to see what it looks like now! We use to park in vacant lot south of Old Jade Hotel and do beach dives after school! Those were the days man! Lauderdale by the sea was a sleepy lil beach town in those days. Many a great day spent on Anglins pier! Nice Vid,thanks for the memories. 😎🤙
amazing Video !! I just recently moved back to Ft lauderdale and I am looking for a Diving Group to participate and share diving experiences . Maybe someone can reach out with info . Appreciated, Safe Diving
Except that there's nothing like Bonaire...drift diving was pretty good in CZ (did my OW with Dressel there, just so I could dive in Bonaire). Cozumel was a 5-6/10 if Bonaire is a 10..
I'd like to know how much Coral was destroyed by you're dangling gauges dragging and fins striking the coral. you guys are way too low in the water column and you guys shouldn't be touching stuff either.
Very nice video. Thank you for sharing. I am a diver since 1988 from the Tampa Bay Area. I come down once a month to dive the blue heron bridge, now that I see your videos I can see that they are way more options. Thanks
The conditions are usually the calmest in the morning with lighter winds, which keep the surf down. Also, storms are more prevalent to pop up in the afternoon. And it gives everyone the rest of the day to enjoy other activities.
Would love to join you some time. I’m a PADI certified Master SCUBA diver and want to dive more often, but don’t have a reliable dive buddy. I live in West Palm Beach.
