Florida is the USA’s diving capital and offers the diver far greater opportunity for ocean, reef and spring diving than any other state in the nation. Scuba diving and snorkelling in springs and rivers is possible all year round.

Reef and beach diving is at its most pleasant and enjoyable when the winds are light during the summer months and early autumn. The enthusiastic diver will no doubt already know that local conditions and nautical charts should always be observed before diving. As an extra precaution it is always advisable to double-check the information with local dive operators.

Scuba diving and snorkelling are both available in the Englewood area. Limestone ledges and artificial coral reefs provide excellent underwater photographic opportunities. Local dive shops will offer information on the best areas.
