Shore diving 5/30~5/31, Pensacola~Destin

[chris_b]

I think it's been ages since I posted anything here, but I'm wondering if anyone's planning some shore dives in the panhandle area tomorrow or Monday? I live in Pensacola so Fort Pickens is the closest for me, but I have no problem driving over to Destin, the jetties are often a good dive. Just looking for folks to dive with.

Actually I think I headed over to Orange Beach to dive with mrmcoy that weekend. I was in Destin this Sunday and visibility was very spotty, a lot of algae/snot in the water. I'll be going again to either Destin or Ft. Pickens this coming weekend if the oil stays away.
