Any help you guys can give me would be greatly appreciated. My wife and I are coming down to Key West in two days, and will be there for a week. She has her PADI OW cert and has 100+ dives under her belt, while I am PADI OW, AOW, and Rescue certified, but with 26 dives logged, about half of those being ocean dives. I never have dived in Florida. My wife has dived in Pennekamp and the Duane.
We're just trying to find out which dives would be the best for us. I hear that Key West isn't all that great, but it has to be better than the quarries in Indiana, doesn't it? We are looking at diving in Key West, Looe Key, and possibly driving up to Largo to do Pennekamp or the Grove.
I've heard that the Grove is a challenging dive. I haven't had an experience diving in currents yet, though I have snorkled in some pretty brisk currents. Should I give it a shot, or should I try to get that experience somewhere else first?
If any of you could recommend some dive ops for any of the locations I've listed, that's something we could really use some help with too.
Thanks!
