I can make some recommendations but do you have a boat to use or are you looking for a charter?

I dive Destin quite often. For gulf dives, we use Panama City Dive Center. Their boats’ staffs are excellent. As for freshwater, unless you like commercialization & way too many divers in the water, skip Vortex & go to Morrison Spring. It’s a state park, beautifully maintained, & crystal clear water w/ a cave, as well. Enjoy!

For diving out of Destin i like Scuba Tech. Great customer service and entertaining staff. I dive Vortex and Morrison as much as possible and prefer Morrison springs since there are a lot less people and the water doesnt get as murky. If you need anything Vortex has a full service shop and is not far from Morrison at all. Vortex is a fun place to dive, especially in the early AM before it gets nuts there. Let me know if you need a buddy during that time frame and maybe i can head out.
