I like to wear a mask when I look for them...

Put in and look for a bunch of boats... usually around Black's island...

If you have never done it before, zload's advice is best. Looks for the boats. Even better, hire a guide. Should be about $200 for 4 hours for 4-6 people. Much more likely to get some that way plus you then have a better idea where to go and what to do if you want to go again on your own.

Put your boat in at Presnells and ask. They will tell you what they know about where they are finding them.
Its a wonderful day in the neighborhood!
