Hi from a long time lurker but new poster.....
I'm thinking of coming pond next year for my holiday.
I really like the sound of Florida.
I was thinking about using the Jacksonville area as a base.
There will be 4 of us coming.
We would ideally like to spend 3 days diving springs, and then 3 days diving the coast.
What do think? And is there any one dive operator who could sort this out for us, or if not a good one for each.
Any ideas for cheap accommodation too? Or maybe the dive centre could sort out the accommodation?
Do we even need a dive centre for the springs? Could we just hire tanks + weights and go off with a map and guide book right?
We are all very experienced uk divers, but none of us have ever been to Florida so any advice at all is highly appreciated.
2nd week would be to take a slow road trip down south to key west, stopping for day or 2 at the space centre and other tourist stuff.
Thanks.
