We got the skinny and Darcy, the park ranger, was bang on accurate about the best place to dive!
We took off after lunch at slack tide...key point! The current whips thru here at 4 kts easy.
It was a wonderful site with soft and hard corals challenging each other for space. The fish were plentiful, playful and much bigger than we've seen lately!
This was a big surprise! We've read recently that the lion fish have become a nuisance in this part of world having been brought here accidentaly it seems. They are extremely poisonous yet very exotic looking.

| Vessel Name: | Altair |
| Vessel Make/Model: | Tartan 34' |
| Hailing Port: | Coconut Grove Sailing Club |
| Crew: | Dudley Clark and Becky Butler |
| About: | Dudley has owned this Tartan sloop and has been cruising on her since 1986. Becky joined the good sloop back in 2000 when we first started cruising together and he has been 'training' me ever since! I couldn't be happier! I've been sailing all my life, but cruising is a whole different fish! |
| Extra: | This is the most extended cruise we've braved on this wonderful, old boat of ours which is planned to be about 2 years! We left Miami in late February of 2008 and want to get below the hurricane belt by the end of July! Ok, so it's July, 2011...we're close, but not home yet! |
