05-20-07 02 Royal Palms Ledge

Day 1, 2nd Boat dive. This dive was to Royal Palms Ledge, also just off Seven Mile Beach but south of Orange Canyon. The site is named for a hotel that burned down and is now a bar. The dive was to a max depth of 53' and average of about 45' for 43 minutes. This site was really cool, and is basically a big hill made of coral with a fantastic Ledge/Overhang on one site with lots of corals hanging on the roof of the ledge and all over. Hilights include an awesome Spotted Drum, a Puffer Fish, and a big school of Jacks.
