Hi Synonymous. First I will tell you to check out the Vero Beach Scuba Club on Facebook or our website at
Vero Beach Scuba Club - Home
short answer is "yes". We have some nice diving here. you'll need to watch the weather to get viz. most dives are just off the beach with depths around 20 feet. We have an extensive system of ledges and reefs. One can see turtles, sharks and lots of sealife along here. And we even have a couple of shipwrecks.
I'd pass the dive shops in vero though. if you need equipment, Sebastian Dive and Surf is the answer for Vero diving.
A trip south to Jupiter will bring you world class diving. Late August gives us the Goliath Grouper Spawning Aggregation. This is not to be missed!
My recommendations for dive ops:
Stuart Scuba (
www.stuartscuba.com) 3 boats, lots of diving and a great shop and staff
Captain Sl8r (
www.jupiterscubadiving.com) one of the best ops and crews ANYWHERE
a little further south puts you at Blue Heron Bridge. BHB is one of the top dive sites in the US. Diving is tide dependent (slack/high tide).
Blue Heron Bridge dive shop right there can help you out. They are owned by Stuart Scuba.
Nearby is Palm Beach diving. Another world class dive experience with tropicals and lush reefs.
Check out Florida Scuba Charters (
www.floridascubacharters.com).
watch our club for any trips we have going out. we'll be diving the grouper aggregation several times. it's awesome.
feel free to PM me with any questions!
