Help, anyone?

[7 seconds]

After several months of distractions (long story) I am finally ready to do what I moved to Florida to do: dive, of course. Problem is, I'm not too sure where to go. I live in the Bradenton/Sarasota area and while I've already found several springs that seem worth going to, I am still fairly new to all this and am unsure of which ones I should visit. I am not cave certified nor highly experienced, but beach diving into the gulf is boring and I would like to find someplace not too terribly far away where I can get some dives under my belt that exceed the dull 20 ft I get out here. Thanks ahead of time for the help.

Check out this thread. http://www.scubaboard.com/showthread.php?t=136207 Bunch of Tampa Bay area scuba boarders headed to Venice Sunday to dive for sharks teeth.

I plan on running my boat out on Friday the 14th, weather permitting, and a part comes in on time!

If you ever want to do a spring (Ginnie, Blue Grotto.....) let me know. ScubaQuest in Sarasota has a boat and there are several good charter boats out of Clearwater/St.Pete plus some SB members with their own boats.

I'm going to get a cheering section together for Rich on Friday and we'll stand on top of the Skyway and give support (and Coast Guard assistance if need be) for his shake down cruise

I'm not much of one for the springs. Check out that Greater Tampa thread though, like the Frogman said. A bunch of us are always posting what we are up to and would love to dive with you.
