Florida! We're All About the Water!

Thursday, November 19

Dive In!

Freshwater? We've got plenty.

Saltwater? Certainly, would you prefer Ocean or Gulf?

Florida has the perfect place to take the plunge into the blue and explore new worlds ruled by living coral, fish, manatees, dolphins and exotic plants.

Seeing the beauty of what lies beneath the surface brings tens of thousands of visitors to Florida year-round. With a quick stop into a local supply shop, you can outfit yourself with everything from snorkels and masks for the shallow places to wetsuits and tanks for those places a little deeper down.

Take a swim with some traveling turtles as they pay their annual visit to West Palm Beach from locations greater than one thousand miles away. Many different kinds of these distinguished animals make the journey to Florida’s east coast each year to take in some sand and sun and do not mind sharing the water with you.

While we cannot guarantee that you will find sunken treasure, mermaids or ghosts of an old sunken Brigantine, we can point you to the right places for shipwrecks, manatees and natural springs.

The Crystal River is home to our much beloved manatees who don’t mind sharing the river with you. Crystal River also boasts underwater caves and naturally occurring springs which give home to many species of fish including bass, snapper and tarpon.

The Florida Keys offer spectacular views and have also caught the eye of millions of diving enthusiasts. With lots of coral reefs the keys are host to many points of interest including the only living reef in the Continental 48 states. After you dry off don’t forget to check out the many offerings of Key West’s festive nightlife.

The Pensacola area has lots of shipwrecks and underwater graveyards for old boats that include many naval vessels. These usually require formal operations, so please make sure to find a proper location.

And, if you are looking for that perfect Florida waterfront home, just ask us!  We will find it for you.
