Singer Island is located on the Atlantic coast of Palm Beach County, Florida in the South Florida metropolitan area. Most of it is in the city of Riviera Beach, but the town of Palm Beach Shores occupies its southern tip. Its latitude of is 26.784 N and its longitude is -80.037 W. The easternmost point of Florida is located there in Palm Beach Shores. Singer Island is actually a peninsula and not an island. Before the Palm Beach Inlet was created, it was connected to the island of Palm Beach to the south.[1]

Named after Palm Beach developer Paris Singer, a son of Isaac Singer, the Singer Sewing Machine magnate, Singer Island has parks, marinas, hiking and bike paths, as well as 47 miles (75.6 km) of sparkling white sand beaches[2] that has been considered one of the top five beaches in Palm Beach County.

The massive size of the lightly loaded large cargo ship in the Atlantic is revealed by the fishing boats nearby off Singer Island.

On this four day trip down to the Jerry Williams Memorial Bridge, my strobe batteries wore down before the ends of the dives the first two days, so I started also carrying my next oldest camera and box sans strobes. That can work out sort of “OK” if the sun is out and yer not under a structure in the shade and the viz is good and you don’t have to crank the ISO way up and you don’t put an old kit lens on it and you don’t have to set it on “auto” and let the camera decide for you where to focus, but none of those was the case. So, I’ll just throw these two dives into one pile as a reminder for what can happen if I delay the purchase of replacement strobe battery packs too long. Turns out the new packs recycle even faster and hold *lots* more firings. Looks like I could even leave the modeling lights on and not run out of juice on a long dive with the new ones. Sadly, they also mean new chargers, as my old ones will burn up the new Lithium Ion versions. :-(
