White Bank Gardens
White Bank Gardens: Planning to take a scuba diving picture at some of the best scuba diving sites in Florida? Then look no further…
A great place to take a scuba diving picture is at a location 2 miles north of the world famous Molasses Reef.
White Bank Gardens is formed by two shallow reefs separated by a sandy channel.
This site is mostly visited by novices and snorkelers due to its sheltered location near the shore. One of its disadvantages is that visibility can be severely reduced depending on local weather conditions.
However, when the weather is fine, this is a great site for taking a scuba diving picture with little current to give you camera shake and with plenty of colorful fish and invertebrate waiting to pose!
A good site to dive at for training or for a novice gaining experience.

Plenty of fish

An easy dive, but nevertheless still enjoyable, with a huge variety of fish and marine life.
The shallow waters and clear light enabled me to get some good practice in with the camera.
