Comments	[None]I have dove around the world Land based livaboards , Lakes. Rivers, Drysuit New Jersey cold water diver , Retired 70s moved to East coast Florida, Did lots of Florida Boat diving kept hearing & Reading about this Blue heron Bridge @ Phil Foster park, I checked the Hi tide chartI looked & Love very early morning as the sun rises Diving Fish are waking up on the reefs then I check the ocean forecast , wind, wave heights. When the stars line up it’s time to make early dive Home before my wife wakes up, So easy diving free parking free entry for the beach , free showers , bathroom. I was blown away when I saw what’s under the water, it’s a No take zone the fish love divers & photographs,Best time to dive week days , very busy weekends , Holidays, Snorkeling, now in my 70s when my gills get dry, I get wet , there’s night diving there also but u need to get a parking pass from local dive shop not far, bring all your dive gear suit up at your vehicle walk right in the ocean. Bring your camera I have meet divers that booked Florida Keys got blown out Drove to the Blue Heron Bridge as there last resort & Told me they could not believe the amount of sea life down there, I love off shore boat diving but this is getting me spoiled How spoiled? I Have vacationed & dove Caribbean islands paid good money boat diving & Did not see or enjoy this much sea life , Seems to much over fishing due to poverty , Locals tell me people have to eat well now you ruined your eco system & your divers will not return
