Sorry about posting another question, but I am curious if any of you are familiar with Crystal Lodge Dive Center? What do you think of them? Are you familiar with their instructor they use? If you have an opinion or experience that you do not feel you can post to a thread please feel free to PM me. Thank you again for your time.
Take care,
Ben

Don't be silly! This is the place to ask! In all the times I've been to Crystal River, I've never used a LDS, so I can't help you. I'll bet someone here will soon, though!

However I did use American Pro Diving to do a snorkel/dive
at King springs and loved it.
Great trip if you have family and reasonable price. IMO
hope this helps

I have been in the shop a couple of times while going to Kings Springs. We rented a boat from them last Feb and they seemed to be nice people. As to the quality of their instructors I can't say. I have had tanks filled and rented a boat, that's all. It may be helpful to tell us what you are looking for, OW instructor/AOW or whatever.

I have used the Plantation Inn from time to time. Cindy and I rented a johnboat and puttered out to some of the springs.

Nice hotel, well setup shop with boats...AND they have a golf course.
