The famous Blue Heron Bridge is located in West Palm Beach, Florida. It’s a macro lovers dream, and has even been called “Lembeh Straits East”, after the “critter diving” capitol of the world in the Philippines. Incredible biodiversity, and an easy shore dive nestled in a beautiful park. Little wonder this biological hot spot has been listed in the top diving sites of North America, and people from all over the world dive it.

Blue Grotto divepark is located in Williston, north-central Florida, in the heart of spring and cave country. It’s about a 45 minute drive from Crystal River, and a perfect way to end the day after snorkeling with the Manatees.

Its relaxing topside, natural beauty, interesting aquatic life, and thrilling (but safe) cavern, make it one dive you don’t want to miss.
