Coral Reef Bleaching, Lost at Sea

February 10, 2008 finally the water conditions appeared good enough to dive Coral Cove Park in Jupiter.

It has been at least 3 months of waiting, the photo's above are what I saw.

I am not too sure whether this is a living coral or the remains of a dead bleached coral.

I do know that it was not here 3 months ago.

I felt Lost at Sea, I used to know every nook and cranny of this Reef Park, I recognized nothing.

Is this the end for the Living Reef Eco-systems in North Palm Beach?
