I will be near St. Augustine in November and wondering if any dive shops lead day trips to relatively nearby caverns. I'm an experienced open water diver, not a cave diver. And I understand Jupiter is about the farthest north for good ocean dives. thanks
 
Blue Springs State Park in Volusia County is probably the closest site. You can probably contact Dayo about visiting that site. Ginnie is too terribly far away, you can contact Cave Country Dive Shop for information on guides.
 
Just over two hours West are quite a few.
Blue Springs is just under two hours South.
Shore dives start at Vero about three hours South.
May get some early manatee action at the springs also.
Don't know of any local shops doing trips any right now, but not necessary most of the time to have a shop affiliation.
 
Ginnie is 90 minutes or so away from St. Augustine. Blue Grotto probably 2 hours away.
 
FYI. Blue Springs in Orange City, Fl is closed to diving until spring of next year as they are doing restoration work around the upper part of the spring.
