Jupiter — The dive was hosted by the Jupiter Dive Center, which specializes in the area’s signature drift dives among Caribbean-like reefs populated by barrel sponges, branching corals, lobsters, lionfish and a healthy population of grouper.

Pompano — The Pompano Dive Center took guests to sites off the greater Fort Lauderdale area, including the wreck of the Tracy and Lighthouse Point — where the group was joined by a giant loggerhead turtle.

Islamorada — Key Dives put participants in the water at renowned Alligator Reef, where the clear water, gentle conditions and abundant sea life had everyone entranced.

Venice — Shore and boat dives were on the schedule courtesy of Florida Underwater Sports, giving divers the chance to explore Casey Key, hunt for shark teeth fossils and, best of all, witness four playful manatees frolicking in the water.

Crystal River — Manatee season had already ended, but Bird’s Underwater shuttled participants past cypress trees thick with Spanish moss to some great diving within minutes of the shop. Bonus: A couple of manatees showed up for the afternoon dives.
