jeditdog, im in the same boat... ill be in orlando that same week for a job interview, and wanted to get some diving in on the 2nd or 3rd, but looking for a buddy. ive been wanting to check out the BHB sometime, too.

good luck with the interview Scubasmacks. If only it was a day later. I actually have Thursday evening open too but planned to stay in the Orlando area.... but plans can change.

....Ideal would be Friday night dive & Saturday Morning dive. Sunday night flight so need to be done by Sat. afternoon.

Hope you have your hotel booked already for WPB/Jupiter area dives. Rates are little insane that weekend cause school spring break is kicking in. I normally recommend North Palm Beach Super 8 in the bare bones $60 range, but it's triple that, for that weekend already. Book early what ever you decide, it's filling up fast down here !!

I too recommend the Super 8 on US1 just south of PGA Blvd. Stayed there a few times. On Singer Island, try Seaspray Inn. In Juno Beach--look at Holiday Inn Express-almost on the beach. The nicest beach in the area!

Force-E is happy to help. We have some of the most knowledgeable dive guides around. Here is a direct link to our Riveria location: Riviera Beach Dive Center - Force-E

Hey, @sportxlh, thanks for the shoutout. You continue to be a supporter of Force-E and we sincerely appreciate it.

Like others said BHB is usually a good dive. Even if ocean conditions get nasty BHB normally will be a good alternative: occasionally the water gets silted up with suspended particulate, but not often. Because the site is actually in the intracoastal waterway near the mouth of the inlet, you won't get much wave action from the ocean but at slack high tide you get all the normally nice ocean water and the acceptable to great visibility. You can hire a guide at Force-E or Pura Vida dive shops (maybe at the on site shop too??) If you don't want to solo it. Scubajenny is also a guide you can hire.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Just booked a dive near Boynton Beach for tomorrow morning.

I think afterword I will kayak around Blueheron bridge.

Hey the diving was great. Water was clear top to bottom.

I'll be back! Soon I hope.

Thanks again for all the suggestions.
