Join Shoal Master Don Ferguson and jam out of GEIGER KEY MARINA for easy access to 7 underrated Lower Keys dive sites! Hit the first target, PELICAN SHOAL LIGHT TOWER "26", then PELICAN SHOAL, SPECULATOR SHOAL, EASTERN SAMBO, MIDDLE SAMBO and WESTERN SAMBO in this fast-paced episode! Two miles to the west of the Light Tower, Pelican Shoal is marked by a large rocky island and several mooring buoys. A little over one mile to the west-southwest is the seldom dived and little known Speculator Shoal, truly unspoiled, wildcat diving at its finest! A little over one mile to the west-southwest is Eastern Sambo, marked by unlit red dayshape "28". Eastern Sambo is another less crowded site, home to a magnificent stand of Elkhorn Coral and millions of friendly fish in about 25 feet of water. 1/2 mile to the west-southwest is Middle Sambo, marked by a small spit of an island. The smallest of the Sambos in about 20-25 feet of water, Middle Sambo has great coral definition and a cavalcade of fish with little dive traffic! Two miles away to the west-southwest, the next and final dive site of the day is Western Sambo, marked by red dayshape "30". Actually two reefs separated by a sand channel and served by over 30 Mooring Buoys, Western Sambo is often super crowded with divers and snorkelers from Key West Dive Boats.
The Dive Odyssey Continues.......Tomorrow in Key West.......only 11 miles away!
