Stuart Scuba Blue Heron Bridge orientation map showing the snorkel trail, submerged structures, swim area, diver entry and exit points, vessel exclusion zone and navigation channel — Stuart Scuba's visual orientation guide. It is not a live chart or the current tide-specific county map. Palm Beach County's map includes a strong-current warning and tide-specific entry and exit guidance; check the current county map and on-site signs before entering.

What to know before a Blue Heron Bridge dive

The Phil Foster Park site is a shore dive, not a boat charter. The map helps identify major zones and landmarks, but water movement, visibility, weather and boat activity change. Use current local guidance, plan with a buddy, stay outside the guarded swim area and marked navigation channel, and call the dive if conditions are beyond your training or comfort.

Shore dive or boat trip?

Stuart Scuba also lists a separate Blue Heron Bridge night dive by boat. That trip has its own schedule, check-in and booking details. Review the Blue Heron Bridge night dive charter before traveling so you arrive at the right location.
