I'm a Fish!
Anyone diving spanish rocks today, or would like to? My #1 dive buddy (wife) is sick and I need to get wet. PM me!
 
I wouldn't waste my time with third pier. I dove it saturday 5-3-08 and It wasn't much. The ledge is in only 8 fsw and not much to see. Limestone and coquina rock with a 18" relief. There were a few fish but no vegitation, corals or sponges. Better left to snorkelers. Spanish rocks was nice as always, but I have seen the viz better(about 5-7 ft). We swam out to the second ledge for the first time and It is a very nice ledge and right were it's supposed to be 50 yards west of the first ledge in about 17 fsw.
 
I have to completely agree with the third pier - not much to see. If it is your very first salt water dive it would be a easy and safe dive to do. Not much to disrupt or hurt.
