Hi everyone!
I'm about to start planning to make a move back to my home state of Florida (finally). I'm very fortunate in that I have a job that will allow me to live basically anywhere (as long as I can commute to a reasonable sized airport on the occasions that I need to). One of the main reasons that I'm wanting to move to Florida is that I want to be closer to places that I can do my hobbies.
As a diver, if you could pick anywhere in FL to live, where would it be?
I should probably tell you a bit about the type of diving that I like to do and my experience. Currently I'm PADI certified Rescue Diver since ~1992, I have PADI EAN/Nitrox. I've completed the academic portions of the TDI Advanced Nitrox and Decompression Procedures courses - so I'm leaning more towards technical diving, than purely rec stuff. I prefer wrecks over reefs, and will be getting full-cave as well as Trimix certifications. So what do you all think, where would be the best place? There are other factors going into my decision too, such as proximity to a dropzone (I'm also an avid skydiver), cost of living, housing available, etc. But, by a large margin, the 2 biggest criteria are proximity to good diving that I enjoy, and to a active turbine dropzone.
Thanks;
Thomas
