For
Southeast divers planning shore, boat or wreck dives
Worth noticing
The site says 40 feet of visibility can be great in Georgia but poor in the Keys, so scores are judged against local norms.

Field notes

The score combines NWS marine forecasts, NOAA tides, wind direction and a site's orientation; the site says divers' visibility reports also tune estimates for that location. Its sample Molasses Reef card includes a 9.2 score, morning timing, wind and seas, and estimated visibility of about 60 feet. Other described features include buddy meet-ups, site reviews and exportable dive logs.
