I enjoy meeting new dive buddies, am comfortable diving with people of all ages/experience levels. I’ll dive anywhere there’s water but usually dive in fresh water due to the cost of ocean charters or traveling to south Florida. Plus diving locally can still be a lot of fun and a cheap/easy way to get experience, build confidence, maintain skills and meet new buddies. I also enjoy snorkeling, as well as kayaking, hiking, and camping.
Places that I have dove include:
FRESH WATER: Devils Den, Blue Grotto, Ginnie Springs, Crystal River, Paradise Spring, Hospital Hole (Weeki Wachee River), Rainbow River, Royal Springs, Lake Denton, Alexander Springs, and many Florida State Parks including Troy Springs, Manatee Springs/Catfish Hotel, Fanning Springs, Blue Springs (Volusia), Peacock Springs, and Blue (Jug) Hole at Ichetucknee Springs.
SALT WATER (Offshore): Cozumel, Jacksonville, Venice, Clearwater (Veterans Reef), West Palm Beach, Pompano Beach, Jupiter and Marathon in the Florida Keys.
SALT WATER (Shore Dives): Blue Heron Bridge, Lauderdale By-the-Sea, Vero Beach (Humiston Park), Ft. Pierce (Pepper Park), Spanish Harbor Key (Bahia Honda), St. Andrews State Park jetties (Panama City Beach) & at Disney’s EPCOT.
