Diver Impressions

"Captain Mike is an incredible boat captain! The ride out on the water was scenic and beautiful. He quickly took us to the perfect spot and set us up with rods, jigs, and the confidence to reel in some big catches. He was super friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to share his love of fishing with our group. Despite being seasoned fishermen and women, we didn't know the area well enough to find the best spots, but he made our day amazing!" - Amit

Marine Life Spotlight

One of the most intriguing creatures you might encounter on your dive is the American Eel. These serpentine fish are masters of camouflage, often hiding among rocks or in crevices during the day. American Eels can grow up to 4 feet long and are known for their incredible life cycle. They're born in the Sargasso Sea and migrate to freshwater rivers and streams, only to return to the ocean as adults to spawn. Spotting an American Eel is always a treat for divers, as their graceful movements and curious nature make for an unforgettable underwater encounter.

The best time to spot American Eels is during their nocturnal feeding periods, so if we're offering a night dive option, you're in for a real treat. These slippery characters are most active in warmer months, making late spring through early fall the prime season for eel encounters. Keep your eyes peeled for their distinctive snake-like bodies and pay attention to sandy bottoms or rocky outcrops where they might be lurking.

Why Divers Love This Trip

Our State Tax Addon2 dive experience stands out for several reasons. First, the personalized nature of the trip means you get undivided attention from our expert guides. This is perfect for refining your diving skills or getting a more in-depth look at the local marine ecosystem. Second, the chance to spot unique species like the American Eel adds an element of excitement to every dive. Lastly, our commitment to safety and environmental responsibility ensures that you can enjoy your underwater adventure with peace of mind.

Dive Site Insights

While we can't pinpoint the exact location of our dive site (as it's not specified in the trip details), rest assured that we carefully select each spot based on current conditions and the best opportunities for marine life encounters. Our local knowledge allows us to choose sites that offer a mix of interesting topography – from colorful coral reefs to mysterious underwater caves – and abundant sea life. We're always on the lookout for the best visibility and calmest waters to ensure you have the most enjoyable dive possible.

Conservation Corner

At Thenna' DF, we're passionate about ocean conservation. During your dive, we'll share tips on how to minimize your impact on the marine environment. This includes proper buoyancy control to avoid touching coral, being mindful of your fin kicks to prevent stirring up sediment, and resisting the urge to touch or feed marine life. We believe that responsible diving not only protects the underwater world but also enhances your experience by allowing you to observe marine creatures in their natural, undisturbed state.

Preparing for Your Dive

To make the most of your State Tax Addon2 dive, we recommend getting a good night's sleep before your trip. Stay hydrated and avoid alcohol the night before diving. If you have any medical conditions or concerns, please let us know in advance so we can ensure your safety. Don't forget to bring a swimsuit, towel, and sunscreen for before and after the dive. If you have a favorite mask or other personal gear, feel free to bring it along, but remember we've got all the essentials covered if you prefer to travel light.

Post-Dive Perks

After surfacing from your underwater adventure, we'll have plenty of time to debrief and share stories from the dive. This is a great opportunity to log your dive, discuss any interesting sightings, and get tips from our guides on improving your technique. We often find that the excitement of the dive carries over into these post-dive chats, creating a fun and social atmosphere that many of our guests really enjoy.

Learn more about the species

American Eel

American Eels are slippery, snake-like fish that'll give you a run for your money. These bottom-dwellers typically grow 1-4 feet long and weigh 8-17 pounds. You'll find them in freshwater streams and lakes, often buried in mud or hiding under shelters. They're masters of surprise attacks on prey. Best time to target eels is during warmer months when they're most active. In winter, they go into a sleepy state when water temps drop below 40°F. Look for them in areas with muddy bottoms and plenty of cover. Anglers love the challenge of hooking these elusive fish. They put up a good fight and are known for their tasty meat. To increase your chances, try fishing at night using cut bait or worms. A local trick: use a sliding sinker rig to keep your bait on the bottom where eels like to feed. Remember, eels are covered in slime, so bring a towel if you plan on handling one. It's all part of the fun when chasing these unique freshwater creatures.
