If you go during manatee season, it is definitely worth it. Snorkeling with the manatees was quite an experience. In fact, it's one I want to repeat soon.
 
I did my check outs at Crystal River, vis isn't that great for diving and there is a small little cavern. That's about it. The snorkeling with the manatees is fun as long as there aren't big crowds. The manatee are there around Jan-March. There are much more pretty places to dive.

The panhandle has some beautiful diving, Jackson Blue and Morrison once it is open. Vortex has a great campground and the spring is a great place to train. You can also get some offshore diving at Panama City, but due to all the storms, the Gulf is a stirred up mess right now. I have dived down at Ginnie and a few other springs around central Florida. I really enjoyed Paradise, but that is an overhead dive. For some beautiful offshore dives, my favorite has been Jupiter. Drift diving at its easiest and best!

Good luck!
