Well I made it back and what a great trip we dove Vortex, Ginnie, Devils Den, Blue Grotto, Manatee Springs, and Crystal River we logged 23 dives in 5 days. Vortex Spring is a nice park and set up for training from open water through cavern. Ginnie Springs was great 4 divable springs and 50 to 100 foot vis and the caverns were breathtaking. Crystal River was also a great stop we had numerous Manatee encounters they are awsome. Devils Den was a cool dive but Blue Grotto the vis was about 3 feet too many divers on the weekend. Manatee Springs is a state park we saw lots of fish and birds but they won't let you dive when the Manatee's are in the spring. The only dive that got canceled was the City of Hawkansville Archeology preserve in the Swannee River the River was too high and 10 knot currents. We had a great time and I definatly recomend Ginnie Springs, Devils Den, and the Crystal River. I will be going back soon.
