Join SFUPS for an amazing two-tank dive to photograph endangered goliath groupers! Every fall, the groupers make their way to Jupiter and the surrounding reefs to spawn. This special event brings a rare opportunity to dive and photograph these creatures while their numbers are at peak levels, and the bonus is that you get to dive with them while the ocean temperature is the warmest it will be all year! To add to the fun, we will hold a ‘day of’ photo contest for trip participants. The winner of this contest will receive bragging rights and a grouper-related prize.
