Mysterious bubbling off of Myrtle Beach State Park; What is it?

This weekend Myrtle Beach State Park visitors shared a video with WPDE showing what looked like a small eruption taking place not far off of the coast.
While many followers gave their own assumptions of what the bubbling activity was. Some thought it was potentially related to the offshore earthquake from last week, the mythical creature known as the Kraken, a submarine, and the infamous Red Jeep making its return from the deep (even though it was pulled out of Dorian floodwaters in 2019). All good guesses, but not in fact the case.
The cluster of bubbles fizzing off the coast was captured by Aaron McAleese.
He said his kids were playing in the water when the bubbles abruptly began- that's when he grabbed his phone and started recording.
“A buddy of mine who was with me, he used to be a diver and that was where he identifies the boat and he said ‘That’s a dive flag on the back of the boat,’ And then the boat moved closer to the bubbling and they threw a buoy into the bubbles and it bubbles for about five minutes, and then it just stopped," he said.

GREED. At least bury the damn stuff further off the shore.

It's from the flatulent Swalwell skin diving.
