1st Dive: Walked South on beach from parking lot to entry site inline with green house. 100 yd surface swim to dive site, descended to 18’. Found boulders, but no lobsters nearby. Swam East, saw nothing. Turned North, eventually found reef after long swim. Found 1 lobster at large reef area. Keeper size, let Deborah have it. Surfaced North of Dania Beach Grill due to low air remaining. 2 hr bottom time.

2nd Dive: walked South from shower approx 50 yds to entry site next to tiki hut. Surface swim 1.5 pier lengths to dive site. 18’ descent onto reef. Quick to find 4 keeper size lobster under reef ledge. Caught 2 pounder here. Lots of marine life to see here. Would love to dive again!
