I didn't know I was starting a band wagon, I thought I was just having some conversation on the scuba board with fellow divers. Your "feet all burned up" comment was out of line, rude and condescending and I would bet your not near as much of a ahole guy in person, your just a key board commando...

Mike, Again I wasn't talking about the sidewalk thing because of my burned feet but because of the deep sand to have to walk in with dive equipment. I understand what you are saying about if it is made more accessible there will be more crowds, I agree with you there you are right, there...

Whatever dude! I was making reference to the deep sand and difficult walking conditions it causes for divers carrying gear not my situation of the hot sand! Excuse me for making any suggestions for conversations sake. I will now leave it all in your most capable hands!

Yoda, The sand at the shower was actually in the shade when we got there it wasn't until you made about maybe 10 steps that it started getting hot. ----------------------------------------------------------- Mike s, We never made it to the water, but that was where we were headed...

The nurse (RN) at the E.R. was a combat medic in the Army. I was in the Army also and I would put more faith in what an Army combat medic told me than your average E.R. doctor. He said if the sand was getting direct sun light as hot as it's been here lately and it was in a confined space where...

Well, the walk of death really lived up to it's name! We got down to Destin about 11:30am on Saturday and we went straight to the public beach access to check out the "walk of death" and decide if it was to much for us. The most freaky thing happend to me that has ever happened to me ever...

My daughter and I will be taking a look at the "WALK OF DEATH" today and if all goes well and it looks like something we can handle we will be there tomorrow morning.

:cool2:

What are the water temps like in Ouachita this time of year? Would you be ok with a 3/2mm wet suit?

Is there a website that has the tide tables for Ft. Pickens?

In June I'm going to try and go diving at the jetties at Ft. Pickens. What are the closest hotels/motels that are worth staying at? I will be there during the week like on Wed & Thurs so the high weekend traffic should not be a problem huh? Thanks in advance for any responses. Larry

What about this dive I have read some references to on here, the Navarre piers, I think that’s right?

You guys have convinced me! I'm either going to dive the bridge or drive back down to St. Andrews and do the #2 walk! LOL! I would not want anybody to see me crying along side the trail! LOL! How far of a drive is it from Destin to Ft. Pickens? Would it be about the same distance as Destin...

You know something I just don't understand is why some of the dive shops in Destin don't have a cheaper (price) dive trip on their skorkel boats to the jetties! They charge $25.00 for snorkelers for what 2 1/2 hours? And they provide them with all the gear they will need(mask, fins, snorkel)...

You got to post some pictures of that buggy once you get it done. Sounds like you might be on to something there. I'm going to do some thinking on this a little and see what I might be able to come up with also.

MRXRAY, Thanks for the info that helps a lot. Compared to the walk from the pavilion area at St Andrews State Park to the kiddie pool, how does the walk at the Destin Jetties measure up to it? We (my daughter and I) did the St. Andrews dive last Summer. That walk was doable while suited...

MRXRAY, Tell me about where the "box" is that you guys are tieing off to. I'm going to be diving the jetties there in Destin in the later part of June. I dove the jetties there about 2 years ago and we actually went out on one of the dive shops snorkel trips but dove off the snorkel boat(will...

If you want personal service, your choice (you have input)of dive locations, GREAT PRICES, FAST trip out and back in and the feeling that you are on your own personal scuba boat charter, then give Rod Hester a call. Here is his web site. Panama City Beach Dive Charters - Wreck Raider Diving...

Hebron Hill, when will you be there? We will be in Destin around the 22nd of June and are planning on diving the jetties.

What about diving under the Destin Bridge? Is it worth it? I have dove the jetties a couple of years ago and was thinking about doing a dive under the bridge this summer while we are in Destin in June.
