Shore Diving - Ft. Pierce - Oct 16

Virus]FSLR2[ · Oct 8, 2004

Ok - I have an opportunity to go down to Ft. Pierce for the day. What is available for a shore dive down there besides what's in the Deloach Book? (How about including what's in the book, since I can't find mine... found my PADI Manuals from '85 though) Where is it, web pages, dive logs, maps... anything? And would anyone else around there be available to dive that day?

Not the time for Fort Pierce diving...... let me figure out how to send you the pictures I took from the main sites. Total devastation!!! The boardwalk is now a free standing ....um...broadwalk with nothing attached to it. Most of the beaches were still closed last week, there could have been some openings that I don't know about. The water looked pretty bad from the shore.

Well, Since I can't go, I may as well go through these old books I found while looking for my Deloach Book.

Little dusty, but still in good shape... Maybe there's a museum that's interested

PADI Diver Manual - 1978
PADI Advanced Diver Manual - 1984
PADI Divemaster Manual - 1985
PADI Adventures in Diving - 1991
PADI Divemaster Manual - 1991
and Jim Church's essential guide to Nikonos Systems from 1994

That's it.. I'm gunna get my horsecollar, backpack, Rubber Mask, and Louisiana Wetsuit out for the Ginnie Springs Dive!

Gawd I'm getting old!

Vickie,
Is Phil Foster still closed? I'm suffering from scuba withdrawals.

Joe,
I did that all day today... had to rebuild the door on my shed... fix the sprinkler... watch the Bellsouth guy cuss at my phone line... (he had to run a temporary line from my house to the pole... He said I need a new line) but... my DSL is finally up and running....

My gills are starting to dry out. I couldn't even get my students in the pool this weekend. They all had conflicts....

There is no beach diving between Ft. Pierce and Sebastian. Here are some pics a buddy of mine took.

The beaches by Patrick AFB are still closed along with many along the Brevard coast also. Looks like it may take the beachs a while to be available whether its beach diving or surfing.
If you don't mind springs, a lot of them are trying to open quickly (unless you want to boat dive). Give them a call. The ones that are in state parks can be accessed by going to the Fl state park web site. And don't go by what the site says, call them. We dove Blue Springs between Francis and Jeanne. The web said it was closed, but when I called, they had been open for a week.
