I went out yesterday with my buddy on a two tank trip with Pura Vida. Despite the weather forecast it ended up being a really nice day out. Seas 2 to 3, 8 to 10 knot wind.

We dove the Mizpah Corridor and the Toy Box/Playpen. These were my first times on these sites and they were amazing. The Mizpah Corridor was incredible site. A few goliaths on the wrecks, bait balls, sharks, barracudas, eels, turtles and coral growth was amazing but just the scale of the dive site is what blew me away. So much to see in one area. My only regret is not having a scooter to see all of it because it is just such a large dive site and it just keeps going. The Toy Box/Playpen was really fun as well. The initial wreck followed up by all the concrete pilings and rubble to explore and swim through was awesome.

Short little video of a goliath and some hawksbill turtles. Music on 720p.

I need to dive more down in Palm Beach and get out of my Jupiter comfort zone :eyebrow:. Palm Beach has us beat when it comes to sites like these.

Thanks again to Captain Kevin and his crew aboard the Sirena yesterday for the great dives and hospitality.

Nice!!!

So now you need to sign up for the next BAit Ball dive Sirena does :)
 
Sounds like a great day!

We were really quite delighted, during our trip last February, at how good the diving was off West Palm. Gorgeous, healthy reefs, and wrecks full of critters!
 
Thank you all for the compliments.

I can not wait for the winter time as well. Finally I will have a drysuit and take advantage of our winter diving.
