Just wanted to let everyone know that the Florida Keys are back open, and need your support! The Upper Keys is in pretty good shape, especially Key Largo and Islamorada, mostly trees down and some low areas saw some flooding but businesses on these 2 islands are mostly all open and the reefs and wrecks are fine!

The Lower Keys is a bit different, mush worse damage, but some businesses are back open and need your support even more! Link below to donate to Lower Keys.

Here is link to anyone who wants to donate to the Lower Keys after Irma...

You can check out this site for details on condition of any island that you might want to visit

The Dive Center I work for open and running dive trips...as all dive shops are open in Key Largo and Islamorada...

BTW...here is video taken by one of my Dive Center’s Instructors just days after the storm...(from a Blog Post)...it shows Molasses Reef and French Reef. You can notice the sand channels are deeper after surge cleaned them out. Corals are fine really.
