Ginnie Springs Sept 3rd or 4th

[jesstotheocean]

I'm looking for a dive buddy or a guide for a day. Is anyone willing to meet me there, I'm driving down from Ohio and should be in Florida late afternoon on Saturday. Or I could do an early morning dive on Sunday. Or if there's a dive shop I could contact that could help me any info would be great. Thank you!

I can dive with you on those days... I have that weekend off.

As far as dive shops:
Ginnie Springs (of course)
Extreme Exposure
Cave Excursions East

These are the only shops I know of in that area. What type of diving are you looking to do?

I'm only Open Water Certified. No Specialties. I see there are only certain springs there I can go in, is it worth it just being an OW diver?

My daughter (17 OW) and I dove Ginnie on Sunday 7/24/05. It is worth the trip if you could also work in a few dives at WPB.The main cavern is open to OW divers and is quite large once you get inside. I was cave certified way back in'76 but have since become a little claustrophobic,but the main cavern at Ginnie is divable for me.You can see the light from the entrance from almost anywhere in the cavern. It is an overhead environment though so be careful and be aware.
