The Beach Diver

Factor this into your dive planning. Stay tuned. We'll explain how king tides can impact your dives.

Higher-than-normal tides are expected to return to South Florida.

While king tides are a natural occurrence caused by the moon's gravitational pull, they can contribute to localized flooding, especially in low-lying and coastal areas—even on sunny days.

📅 Upcoming East Coast King Tide Periods:
🌑 September 8–15
🌊 September 24 – October 15
🌊 October 22 – November 12 (highest predicted tides around October 27)
🌕 November 22–29
🌕 December 22–27

🚗 During king tides:
✔️ Allow extra travel time if you're heading to the beach or low-lying areas.
✔️ Never drive through flooded roadways.
✔️ Stay informed by monitoring local forecasts and conditions.

Okay, hear me out.

A scuba diver seeking his father's remains on a wreck is swallowed by a s***m whale and has one hour of air remaining in his tank to escape.

Diving is closed at Blue Heron Bridge again. Please be advised that warnings are always posted AFTER contamination is detected, which means people were diving in and ingesting ecoli prior to closing. It is a safe practice to avoid this dive if you have any immunity issues, open wounds, or conditions which might become life-threatening when exposed to ecoli.

Pay heed

🔔 Water Quality Alert 🚨
The Florida Department of Health just issued an official swimming advisory for Golden Beach (along with Bark Beach and North Shore Ocean Terrace). Recent tests showed elevated levels of Enterococcus bacteria, which is a f***l indicator bacteria—so the recent news headlines calling it "p**p pollution" are spot on. Health officials are actively advising everyone to stay out of the water for now - Sandra
