SCUBA Shore Diving at The Blue Heron Bridge - Best shore diving in the country!

You won't find a better place in the United States to shore dive that at The Blue Heron Bridge in Phil Foster Park. Easy access just feet from convenient parking. The covered beach entry is large and shaded from the Florida sun. There's an incredible variety of life to be seen underwater if your diving or snorkeling. You'll want to dive at slack high tide fro the clearest water and you might consider contacting a local dive guide to show you where to find things like octopus, and nudibranchs, but it's not necessary. Its a shallow dive averaging about 15-20 feet at the most. Be sure to look for the speedboat wreck and go under the bridge! We visit this place about once a month and it never disappoints.

    Amazing convenient dive site
    This inlet has the distinction of being the Eastern most point in the US. Because of this unique distinction the Blue Heron bridge is awash with micro sealife. From an easy shore dive in 8ft to 25 ft water you can find seahorse, octopus, lobster, eels, hermit crabs, etc. And look out for the occasional barracuda, spotted rays and other large fish life. Only issue here os that parking inside the park is hard to come by. Plan on getting there early to find a convenient spot.

    very deceiving location but it is a Diamond
    abundant fish life! Sea horse, grunts, parrot fish, decorator crabs, jaw fish with eggs, electric ray, star fish, file fish, scorpion fish, barracuda and some devil rays came through..... experience was fantastic, I highly recommend. Not a single dislike:)
