YEE HA! YIP EEE!

If you would like to catch our Florida Keys' lobster on a Tilden's Scuba Center dive trip, no problem. Make arrangements before the dive with the shop and we will accommodate you. Some dive areas that we dive in are "no take zones" but we have lots of other beautiful places that are available for you to catch that wonderful lobster dinner.

Also, each year Tilden's Scuba Center has a fun contest, or as the dive cowhands like to call it, the Lobster Rodeo.

The contest is held during the two days of the Keys' mini lobster season, which are the last Wednesday and Thursday in July.

The heaviest live lobster in each category wins a fabulous prize.

We do have rules and regulations. We do have three categories; men, women, and children-age 14 and under. We do have prizes! Really good ones. But most of all, we do have fun, Florida Keys style!

All participants must register at our Marathon dive shop.

Also, there are prizes for second, third, and best of the the Hard Luck Prize!

Please call 305-743-7255 for more information.

This year the proceeds are earmarked to benefit the Marathon Library.
