Florida Keys Dive Center - any recent(ish) experience?

They (Conch Republic) were actually great about it - they asked me what I wanted to do, said they'd check back with the first booker and call me back. They did, and said he was fine with wrecks but didn't care which. So I got to pick and chose Spiegel Grove.

Thread 'First Spiegel Grove dives and lessons learned'

May 14, 2025

Been sitting on this post for a while waiting for time to write it up. Went down to the Keys a couple weeks ago, the only diver between the two couples who went. I really wanted to take the opportunity to do some wreck diving; ever since I was first certified (in 1988) I've always said it was wrecks that really interested me...yet I've never done a proper "wreck dive" with penetration possibilities or the freedom to try them. I've done the Antilla in Aruba, but that was follow-the-guide and pretty much a tour of the outside of the wreck, and the Oro Verde in Grand Cayman but there wasn't...
