I'm a recently-certified diver and will be in Orlando for work in mid-October. I'm interested in tacking on a few days to the end of the trip for some diving. From what research I've done, I'm leaning towards Key Largo, maybe two days of boat diving, hopefully with a stop in West Palm Beach on the way down to dive BHB.
All my dives so far have been in Monterey, and I'm planning to continue to dive locally over the coming months, so these would be my first warm water dives and my first boat dives.
My questions:
All my dives so far have been in Monterey, and I'm planning to continue to dive locally over the coming months, so these would be my first warm water dives and my first boat dives.
My questions:
- Does this seem like a good plan for a beginner diver? Would you suggest other areas instead?
- How reliable are the conditions at that time of year? I realize it's hurricane season, but barring a hurricane or tropical storm, what would be the risk that conditions would be a bust and I'd have to eat the extra cost of travel & hotels and not get any decent diving in?
