    Orange Grove Sink is Spring within the Peacock Springs System (that is one of the main cave diving systems in Florida) which allows Open Water Divers. This spring can be a little intimidating from the surface, with the covering of duckweed, but once you get under the surface, with the clear spring water, the fallen trees and the light penetration, the sights are surreal. Those with cavern certification, can even explore the wonders of the cave system. But no worries for those that aren’t, we will buddy up to ensure everyone is safe, but remember to dive within your limits and communicate to your buddy.

    This is a Florida State Park, so only cost $4.00 a car load, there are primitive facilities with a changing area and picnic tables and grills.

    Will need to have all your gear since there is no rentals available on site. Additionally, since the other sites attract a lot of cave divers, there is a ranger that will check your certification card, so have it or you may not get to dive :(

    Bring a lunch and we can chow down following the dive(s).

    Any other questions, just post ’em.

    Let’s DIVE, DIVE, DIVE
