If you went how was the water condition? Temperature, Vis, etc.

I am going this Friday for the first time.

There are a bunch of folks going to DS this weekend (September 10) from my dive club, NYC Divers. Feel free to join up (joining is free and takes about 2 minutes), and you can correspond with the others that are going on our message boards. They go fairly regularly, and we're having an "End of Summer" picnic/BBQ there on October 1st as well, which you'd be more than welcome to join us for.

You can find us at:

or at our own website:

http://www.nycdivers.com

We also have a localdiving mailing list that you can write to or get news of local diving excursions from.

Drop a blank email to:

localdiving-subscribe@orionmedia.net

After you're approved you'll get directions about how to use the list and connect up wit other NYC area divers.

Feel free to drop me a line with questions at michael@nycdivers.com

Happy diving!

I was there last Sunday and Monday. The water temps at the surface was about 75 and it was about 70ish down to 30'. There was a lawyer of silt from 30-50 feet between the thermo clines. In the first thermo cline the vis was 30', the second was about 5'-10' (Silt layer), below that it opened up to about 30' again. This is the best time of year temp wise if you want to dive wet. If you stay above 50' you can get away without a hood and gloves. Drop below that you will want hood and gloves.

Sweet. We're looking forward to a nice weekend day of picnic and diving.
