    King’s Park Lake in Florida Springs is a straightforward freshwater dive, good for local divers looking to log some bottom time or practice skills. Visibility usually sits around 5-10 meters. We’ve seen sunfish and freshwater turtles here, and it’s a decent spot for navigation practice given its smaller size and relatively calm conditions. It’s an accessible, easy dive, perfect for newer divers or those refreshing their certifications.
