West palm, Jupiter area?

I just called JASC and found out they only have one boat the Shearwater, but put divers on other boats when one books a dive. Has anyone gone out with JASC recently? I don't like the Shearwater~ Just need a offshore 2xtank

You bumped up a Year Old Thread,,,,but that's alright.

@leesea you've dove with PuraVida before and they are a great boat, why not use them again?. JASC's changes happened last year and it's a long confusing story with their old local boat Deep Obsession, but it's gone.

I'd recommend you go to Blue Heron Bridge. It's a free shore dive, and has an amazing amount of life. Octos, fireworms, rays, crabs, eels, you name it. I've even seen photos of manatees there (but never seen them personally). You must dive it at slack tide. For the exact location, google "Phil Foster Park." They have free parking and there's no charge to enter the park, dive, or park. There are restrooms onsite and showers (no hot water though).

If you want to hire a DM or rent gear (tanks etc) then I'd go see or call the people at Force-E. Blue Heron Bridge Diving and Tides | Force-E Scuba Centers

Tide table is here: https://ucb7c3af68a8841e48bab74ef66...lfzp1BCpiXn3dmjr9Lk-xstWvPjAgRphcsSRykIt/file

If you want to dive after dark, local law requires you to dive with a "sponsor". The dive shop identifies night dives they sponsor in red on that tide table. You don't need anything special to dive during the day.

The permit is for parking, not for diving. Collectors are out there at night diving off boats
