About This Adventure
Experience the stunning underwater world of Palm Beach as you drift dive through warm, crystal-clear waters teeming with unique marine life. Board the Kyalami Too and let the gentle current guide you along vibrant reefs, creating an unforgettable adventure in one of Florida's most picturesque coastal regions.
Explore the beautiful waters of Palm Beach and surrounding area! At Twilight and into the Night!
At the very heart of Florida's Treasure Coast is the Palm Beaches, a stretch of coastline which spans Riviera Beach, down through West Palm Beach and on to Lake Worth. Here, the Gulf Stream swings closer to shore to West Palm Beach than anywhere else along the state. The result is a remarkable catalyst for an environment of warm, clear blue water (70 to 100 foot visibility is the norm) deposited by the currents steady northward flow, and a host of marine creatures, some seldom found anywhere else in Florida. This also gives rise to West Palm Beach's special forte, drift diving.
The drill is quite simple. The Kyalami Too, our dive boat, lines up on one of the two main reef tracts that run just offshore. Divers are then dropped in a group and they are followed by the boat while the current takes them along the reef.
Safety and preparedness are paramount, so all divers must have a primary light, a backup light, and a tank light.*
