We are scheduled to go out on Saturday March 30 off Jacksonville for a Lobster hunt. It is the end of the season so we make one more run out. The lobsters off Jax seem to be a tad larger than those elsewhere, we have found. The dives are deep so have to be Advanced and Nitrox, but we have a lot of fun. Here is a link to information on it: http://www.meetup.com/bubblesupjacksonville/events/108802202/.

Otherwise, you can contact Capt Dan at Offshore Dive Charters (904) 463-3236 if you want to check out any other options with him. Since most sites are a bit of a ways offshore and his boat is big, he does have minimum diver needs and the cost are higher than South Florida. Starting at around $100 for 2 tanks.

I haven’t checked into the Springs situation, but yes right now they are having brown out issues due to the flooding, so not sure when they will open back up and what is closed right now. My two favorite Spring sites are Orange Grove and Catfish at Manatee....they are both caverns, but OW divers can dive there as well :) Also, they are State Parks so the cost is minimal - $6.00/car :)

Glad we were able to assist you in your travels :)
