Heading to Daytona Beach first of March

[Cope07]

I am heading to Daytona with my wife, and we are looking for dive locations and hopefully a dive center that will take us out in the ocean in kayaks. We have been diving a little over 25 times in varying conditions and have experience kayaking long distances. We are willing to drive if needed but I am having trouble finding places to go. Any help would be awesome.

and have experience kayaking long distances.

Long distance like 13-19 miles? The Daytona / Ponce ocean bottom is all sand until some long miles wreck sites. The best reef sections are 18-22 miles out. And March viz from constant swells is just toast.

That leave many Daytona visitors headed inland to the springs like Ginnie, etc. Ginnie has both gear and tank rentals available. Or head 2.5 hrs south to Jupiter and West Palm. There's a zillion posts about those places using the seach feature.

On the rare chance that the dive weather forecast is like hitting the lotto, You can call Sea Dogs Scuba Shop and they can put you in touch with a local boat operator that will take you diving. They have local ears on who's running and can put you on a boat. Right now, no one is running 'full time' dive trips in that area.
