Dove this site on May 1, 2010 - Myself and two others dove this site on May 1, 2010 and would rate the site 2 out of 5 stars. The current at the time was almost none. I was at the site the day before to check conditions and the current was also next to nothing. The visability on the dive was about 2 - 3 feet. I expect the vis can be much better at times but I would say on average (given the area) you can expect the vis to be around 10 feet. We did not locate any of the underwater structures that are supposed to be there. I did find on object coming out of the sand that may have been the top of a reef ball. The objects may have been coved with sand through the year. Bottom is sand / silt.
