Just in time for Spring Break, it’s submarine season in Ft Lauderdale.

That US NAVY submarine is back again!

About that US NAVY submarine off Dania Beach.

.

I’ve been seeing this sub on and off for years, right offshore from Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park in Dania Beach.

It’s always in the same area, just south of Port Everglades inlet, about a couple miles offshore. Seems to run a short north – south course paralleling the coast.

Since the 1990s, US NAVY subs have been conducting undersea mapping, listening and other exercises right in this area. The submarines use special detection devices to determine the acoustical and electromagnetic signatures of nearby ships. It’s a part of the South Florida Ocean Measurement Facility, i.e. the Naval Surface Warfare Center located inside Port Everglades. It uses special detection devices to determine the acoustical and electromagnetic signatures of nearby ships.

The ship itself is a large nuclear powered Virginia-class attack submarine, and here’s a video of a similar one heading out of Port Everglades back in 2015!

The Time-release Dose – About that US NAVY submarine off Dania Beach.

By now thousands of people have probably noticed

the submarine that’s been appearing just offshore

from Ft Lauderdale – Dania Beach.

.

The US NAVY submarine can sometimes even be seen remotely on a web cam! (composite photo)
Dania Beach Pier and Beach WebCam

.

The sub is usually seen in the same area, which is just south of Port Everglades inlet, and about a couple miles offshore. It seems to run on a short north – south course, paralleling the coast and always with a police escort.

.

US Navy Virginia class submarine off the coast of Ft Lauderdale, Florida.

.

The sub itself is a large nuclear powered

Virginia-class fast-attack submarine.

It was designed for anti-submarine warfare and intelligence gathering operations, among other things. Each sub costs $2.8 billion and is being built by General Dynamics Electric Boat in Newport News, Virginia.

.

The submarine seems to run on a north-south course, reversing direction repeatedly.

.

Sometimes the submarine gets really close to shore, maybe only a mile or so. I’ve tried paddling out towards it previously, but then changed my mind after seeing the police escort boat. 😉

.

When the submarine is operating, there is actually an exclusion zone for boaters!

.

Rip current hydraulic – a cruise ship so big that it actually drains the water out of Port Everglades inlet!

.

Busy Port Everglades activity also includes freighters, private vessels, charter fishing boats, etc.

.

Please remember that Port Everglades inlet is a busy SHIPPING LANE and a FULL SPEED boating zone!

DON’T venture inside or cross the inlet unless you know EXACTLY what you’re doing and have a good reason for doing so!

.

A large private yacht enters Port Everglades inlet at high speed, framed by the semi-dilapidated inlet jetty.

 After some research, I found out that since the 1990s, US NAVY subs have been conducting undersea mapping, listening and other exercises right in this area. The submarines use special detection devices to determine the acoustical and electromagnetic signatures of nearby ships. It’s a part of the South Florida Ocean Measurement Facility, i.e. the Naval Surface Warfare Center located inside Port Everglades.

Of course, with the currently tense political climate and the Russian-Ukraine war going on, it’s hard not to link this submarine to it. This wouldn’t be the first time that enemy submarines have been sighted off Florida’s coast. Nazi Germany WWII U-boats and Soviet subs during the cold war, for instance. The whole idea of spying with a submarine is to remain undetected, and very recently the Russians did just that – at least for some time! 😮

.

Here’s a video of perhaps the same or a similar one heading out of Port Everglades back in 2015!

.

I have paddled right up to a couple of US Navy subs back in the 1990s. This was before 9/11 inside Port Everglades.
I mean right next to it because I recall touching the rubber outer cladding!

The Time-release Dose – Mount Dania unveiled at Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park!

Who says there are no

mountains in South Florida?

“Mount Dania” towers over the beach at Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park.
The shifting sands of time – Beach erosion and re-nourishments in Dania Beach.

.

The normally quiet and beautiful

Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park

has undergone a radical transformation!

Formerly known as John U. Lloyd Beach State Park, it also includes Whiskey Creek – a very popular paddling spot.  The Park is the last remaining undeveloped beach and quite possibly the nicest natural place in all of Broward County.

With the Grand Opening of Mount Dania, Florida State Park planners

have revealed a new strategy designed to combat beach erosion!

The planners have announced that it is estimated that leaving the sand in this form will allow it to last up to 5x longer than if it was distributed over the beach. The sand has been trucked in from large sand deposit pits near Lake Okeechobee, and about 22,222 loads were needed to build this monumental project.

Additionally, some new beach activities will be allowed. These include the kayak slide, sand rolling, sand boarding, uphill kiting and downhill sand ski racing, among others. However once a beach umbrella has been planted at the top, that visitor shall be allowed to claim the mountain for one hour!

So hurry on over to Dania Beach – today is your first chance to claim your mountain!

The Time-release Dose – US NAVY submarine sighting off Dania Beach.

Offshore open water paddling at

Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park.

(tap or click pic to read)

US Navy submarine about two miles offshore Dania Beach, Florida.

.

I’ve been occasionally seeing this sub off Dania Beach for months, if not years. Probably just conducting exercises or testing, but last week they seemed to be out there every single day!

It’s always in the same area, just south of Port Everglades inlet, about a couple miles offshore. Seems to run a short north – south course paralleling the coast.

Once I spotted it, I paddled out about a mile offshore in my surfski to where the white reef mooring buoys are. The sub was still at least a mile away and heading due south with a police escort.

Thanks to reader feedback, I found out that the sub is conducting undersea mapping and other exercises. It uses special detection devices to determine the acoustical and electromagnetic signatures of nearby ships. It’s a part of the South Florida Ocean Measurement Facility, i.e. the Naval Surface Warfare Center. The ship itself is a large nuclear powered Virginia-class attack submarine, and here’s a video of a similar one heading out of Port Everglades back in 2015!

That coastline is the quiet* and beautiful Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park (MJ Park for short), which also includes Whiskey Creek – a very popular paddling spot.

The Park, formerly known as John U. Lloyd Beach State Park is the last remaining undeveloped beach and quite possibly the nicest natural place in all of Broward County!

The Daily Dose – This is sort of a cautionary tale about paddling in or around port inlets.

Some ships are so big that they can

actually drain the water out of an inlet at low tide

to create a rip current hydraulic!

.

This ship is so large that it doesn’t take long for the bow to clear the jetty and it’s at this point that the hydraulic or rip current really starts to form!
Rip current hydraulic – a cruise ship so big that it actually drains the water out of Port Everglades inlet!

.

Port Everglades is a port of call for some of the largest and newest cruise ships in the world. On weekend afternoons, you will see several ships departing one after the other. On this particular day I was just outside the inlet, and saw that the MS Oasis of the Seas was getting ready to depart. I decided to wait a bit to watch this behemoth steam past me, feeling secure since I was about 30 feet south of the jetty rocks. This turned out to be too close and I was momentarily caught up in a hydraulic which started pulling me back into the inlet. Safer would have been to at least double that distance!

Professionals at work on the job at Port Everglades.

Port Everglades is one of the busiest sea ports

on the eastern seaboard with teams of

professionals ensuring it’s smooth operation.

.

It’s been a while since I last rode ROSIE – she’s a whole lotta kayak, a good choice for the job!
It’s been even longer since I’ve wielded a 230cm euro paddle – wow!!
A tribute to Rosie and all the plus sized kayaks out there.

.

Port Everglades is not a paddling destination in and of itself. However it offers a peek into the operations of a busy commercial sea port and can be a part of a paddling loop in Dania Beach. The intracoastal waterway separates the Port facilities on the west side from the natural and restored wetlands on the east side. All paddling should be done on the east side and out of the way of powerboat traffic on the instracoastal channel per se. Thankfully there are power boat speed limits on this segment which are enforced year round!

.

Witness a different type of professional kayaker with hardhat .. at Port Everglades.

.

This professional kayaker’s job appears to be to watch and observe the seawall fill operation taking place inside the Port.
Most likely this relates to potential environmental impacts due to the ongoing expansion.

.

Port Everglades also hosts some of the largest cruise ships in the world.
Coronavirus Quarantine Kayaking Dose – Day 16 : Seventeen mile loop around Ft Lauderdale

.

DO NOT VENTURE INTO THE PORT INLET UNLESS YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU’RE DOING!

However sections of the intracoastal waterway south of the inlet can be utilized by paddlers seeking a loop to connect with Whiskey Creek and / or the ocean. In fact Dania is one of the very few places in South Florida where a short portage from the instracoastal to the ocean is possible.

This enables taking advantage of tides and wind for your paddling workouts! 🙂

.

The Port inlet is slated to be dredged to increase depth and also widened in spots.
It would really benefit everyone if the speed limit in this short section were lowered to minimum wake out past the jetty.

very small.

The very loud and the

very quiet.

in Dania Beach, Florida.

One the one side is the noisy and very industrial Port Everglades, one of the busiest ports on the eastern seaboard. It is currently undergoing expansion which includes the newly arrived giant gantry cranes!

On the other the quiet and beautiful Dr. Von D. Mizell-Eula Johnson State Park (MJ Park for short) which also includes Whiskey Creek – a very popular paddling spot.
