I’ve seen freedivers shooting fish just east of pnut island, near the mouth of the inlet. Of course, you know about BHB.... The channel wall is supposedly a cool dive, but may or may not be legal.

Its interesting.......
Some really excellent diving is near the Blue Heron Bridge, and the Channnel - the Channel is almost like a wall dive - very cool, however you need a boat and can only be done at slack high tide - well worth doing and I think the bridge is world class for macro.

I have herd about the bridge wall being a great dive but i don't own a boat my friend does and we go out a lot but that's a far boat ride from Boca Inlet but we could also drive.

The "wall" is NOT near the Blue Heron Bridge - its by the PB Inlet - Ship Channel - even if you could swim it from shore (not recomended - too far and boat traffic all over) you really need a boat and slack high tide to dive it - its close, but its not at the BH bridge - different site.

My step dad told me about that place he said something like "8 years ago me and my buddy's went *right there* and got amazing lobster" and he said they had to take a boat now i know what your talking about! sill me!
I added a picture of the Inlet i took it one weekend i was with Andrew.

Here's a link to a guy's snorkeling pics from Peanut Island:

I'm not a local and I haven't been there, but it looks like it is not too bad if the conditions are right.
