Hi Guys,
I will be working in Gainesville, Florida during first 3 weeks on November. This is the first time coming to Florida, so I'm a newbie. I'm an PADI AOW certified, but wife can only do DSDs. Please point me to any resources online where I can learn more.
I will have time for a 4 day vacation including Sat,Sun.
Can I dive with sharks in Florida? Looks like Bahamas is the place for sharks. But would like to do it in Florida to save costs.
Where can I find the best dive spots in Florida? It looked like "the keys" is the best place. Can I get there in a bus from Gainesville?
How is the diving in and around Miami?
I have never done a wreck dive and love drift dives. So hoping to include that in one trip as well. But it looks like these would happen at other places than "the keys"
Lastly, What would be the closest place to Gainesville to a decent dive (good viz). If possible, I will do a few dives over a weekend. I heard Jacksonville may have diving, but not sure how the dive sites are.
Thanks for your Help
