Hello All,

I just moved to downtown Little Rock this past Monday. I'm looking for a dive club to join and to do some local diving. The only fresh water diving I've done has been in a pool. I'm looking forward to less gear rinsing. I'm certified through divemaster with PADI and have about 80 dives mostly in cold Northern California water and few dives in Hawaii.

Thanks!
 
Check with ricks dive and travel, and I've heard good things about ocean extremes too. You are not far from several good fresh water locations.... Heber springs, lake ouachata, and a little drive north but as you mentioned caves.... Bonne terre mines in bonne terre mo. (Spelling is probably off). I am in west tn, and usually go to heber springs area during the summer and it is a four hour drive for me. Other than that have to wait for Florida trips for salt water.... Most everything else for tn is mud

Good luck and welcome to the south
 
You've got a few choices in Northern AR: Norfolk Lake, Bull Shoals, and Beaver Lake. I've enjoyed Beaver Lake - and there is a nice dive shop and Hotel right next to each other (C & J Sports and Point West Resort and Suites.)

If you drive further North into Missouri. Table Rock Lake can be fun. And if you're cavern / cave certified: Bennett Springs near Lebanon, MO and Roubidoux Springs near Waynesville MO are awesome dive spots (in season.)
