The quarry in Madison County, AL. is Madison Aquatic and Recreational Park. http://www.rockdivers.com I've never found this quarry to be murky or crowded. As far as tempeture goes, of course it's going to be cold (in the winter months). They even offer NAUI certifications, refills, rental and swapping of dive-stories.
Oh, this is my first post...hello everyone!
Howdy,
Thanks for the reference to the quarry, I'll file it and take a look sometime. For now all of our training is being done over at Alabama Blue Water Adventures just south of Birmingham. It's close to Atlanta and it's deep enough (140') for all levels of training and the water area is huge, I forget how many acres, but lots. The owner there is in the process of building a new, more modern facility that looks like it will be great. Nice folks too.
Last time I was there it was 52 degrees, so bring yer flannel jammies.
