Why dive here
With 142+ marine species recorded in the area - including dolphins, octopuses, seahorses, sea turtles and mantis shrimp - Spanish Rocks offers some of Florida Springs's richest diving. Water ranges 16-31°C, warmest June, July, August.
Spanish Rocks offers a unique rocky environment, a change from the typical spring dives in Florida. Expect to navigate between large limestone formations and boulder fields. It’s a good spot for divers looking to practice buoyancy in confined spaces and those who appreciate the geology of the springs. We often see freshwater turtles here, casually cruising through the crevices.
