Feeling Lucky!

Lady Luck with South Florida Diving Headquarters

Dive 1: Lady Luck.  Seas 1 feet, depth 125 feet, vis 60 feet, water 88 degrees, moderate to heavy current. Fortune was smiling on us as eight lucky divers descended on the wreck of the Lady Luck—a dive site known for being hit or miss depending on the conditions. But this time, it was a total win! The Lady Luck, which was intentionally sunk in 2016, rests at 126 feet below the surface off Pompano Beach, boasting a playground of quirky sculptures. Imagine an octopus dealing cards, giant dice scattered around, and a new addition—a classic, old-school diver statue guarding the deck. Though the currents ranged from moderate to strong at different depths, we found plenty of shelter amidst the wreck's nooks and crannies. And the marine life did not disappoint! We were treated to thrilling encounters with massive barracudas patrolling the area, and a mesmerizing school of spadefish gliding gracefully by. It was a dive to remember!

Dive 2: Sunkist Reef. Seas 1 feet, depth 60 feet, vis 60 feet, water 88 degrees, slight current.  After battling the currents at the Lady Luck, a relaxing drift dive was just what we needed. Splitting into two flag groups, our team of eight divers set off for a laid-back journey across the vibrant reef. The water seemed alive as we drifted effortlessly, surrounded by an incredible array of marine life. Playful porkfish darted in and out of view, schools of grunts swirled around us, while lobsters peeked out from their rocky hideouts. Colorful damsel fish fluttered past, along with an endless parade of underwater wonders. It was the perfect way to unwind after the wreck dive!
