Experience a whole new world after sunset with our 1 tank dusk/night dives at beautiful Cypress Springs in Vernon, Florida. As daylight fades, the crystal-clear spring transforms—bringing out nocturnal marine life and creating an unforgettable underwater adventure. Whether it's your first night dive or your fiftieth, this is a dive you'll never forget.

The spring basin is 50 feet deep at the mouth of the cavern. Surface lit during the day and inhabited by Koi, Gar, Catfish, American Eels, Redhorse Suckers, Blue Gill, and Bass to name a few. These will surely be your constant companions, and are tame enough to eat right out of your hand, an underwater photographers dream. The cavern continues another one hundred yards, to a depth of 115 feet at the cave system security gate. The white sand bottom and shimmering air pockets make for a breathtaking experience!
Created by Doc & Ruth Dockery, Vortex Spring is home to the Red & White "Diver Down" Flag and is one of the largest diving facilities in the state of Florida.
Vortex Spring is recognized as one of the best and safest diving resorts in the country. This 520 acre playground produces approximately 28 million gallons of crystal "gin" clear water daily at a year round temperature of 68 degrees.
Vortex Spring offers beautiful campgrounds and lodging facilities.

Morrison Springs is one of the most popular diving spots in northwest Florida and well-known throughout the southeast. This 161-acre park was acquired by the state in 2004 and has been leased to the county to maintain and preserve. The highlight of the park is a 250-foot diameter spring pool that produces and estimated 48 million gallons of crystal clear water each day and has been recorded to produce up to 70 million gallons a day. Three cavities allow Morrison’s frigid waters to surface from the underground aquifer. The deepest of these cavities, at approximately 300 foot in depth, eventually terminates in an underground chamber of unknown dimensions.

Located in Northwest Florida, Cypress spring discharges 65.3 million gallons of water per day. The outer depths of Cypress Spring are roughly 25 feet deep. A small opening can be penetrated to a maximum depth of 75 feet. Many beautiful springs litter the state of Florida. However, I can’t imagine one more beautiful than Cypress Spring in Vernon Florida. Different shades of blue cover the crystal-clear spring. Light blue color water surrounds the perimeter of the natural Florida spring. Dark blue water rests directly over the spring vent near the swimming area.
