We will be coming down October 9 and staying for 6 nights. I dove the St Andrews jetties last year and was hoping to dive there again this year. I have looked at the tide charts for these dates and high tide is at night. Am I missing something or am I just out of luck on diving the jetties? I do not wanna night dive the jetties.

Your good to dive that Sun at 10 am, try to get in your first dive about 9am. Any of the other days are divable , but probably have bad viz. Always watch for the currents , you can see the marker buoy from the jetties and watch to see how much current is flying by. If cant dive on slack or high tide,stay in tight to the jetty entrance and stay as low as you can , thats where there is the most to see anyway. Dive safe and have fun!Theres usually a ton of tropicals right at the entrance.
 
If you decide you do want to dive the jetties at night, I went a few nights ago and it was great. Deff a fun night dive.
