Friday, I had the pleasure of being invited by Stuart Scuba to participate in the "Reel it in for the Reefs" Clean-Up Dives which were sponsored by the National Save the Sea Turtle Foundation.
It was amazing to see so many charters out of Riviera Beach participating in this event.
I was on...
Bhb has tons of macro if you know where and what to look for. If vis is good, there's some cool WA stuff under the East bridge. Most ppl are there for macro.
Welcome to SB Yvette and thanks for being open enough to discuss it with us. I'm sure there will be lots of questions, and we hope you come back to engage with us in the discussion.

I may need to book a Molassess reef dive because my last trip to Key Largo was extremely disappointing. It was some of the worst reef I've ever seen and made me never want to return.

You've learned to manage it over time whereas the OP is new. I wouldn't question if you could hang, but I'm pretty sure the OP would struggle to stay underwater on a single dive that long in a shorty in 72 degree water. Either the newer diver is moving too much and runs out of air or shivering...
For me it depends on my dive profile. Am I doing a shallow long macro photography dive or a shorter drift/hunting dive?
84+ I wear a skin regardless
