Last I heard, EN is still open. I would still like to hear Emerald conditions.Originally Posted by wingman
I might drop buy there tomorrow on my way south.

I stopped by Emerald and Cheryl on my way home yesterday. The water, from the surface, is dark/clear/tannic. I would guess it is divable, maybe 10-15 foot vis. I will jump in Saturday and find out.

Hi John, Did you dive it Saturday? Looked clear to me on Thursday and I could see down at least 15 ft in Cheryl. Bill

Water was still tannic, with 15-20 feet max vis and lots of particulate, percolation . I would give it a couple of more weeks.

15' vis sounds lovely.
