About Vortex Spring:
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.
Our property is packed with experiences for the entire family whether it be scuba diving with our trained and certified instructors, exploring our nature trails, or just taking a dip in the spring.
A mecca for diving, snorkeling, and swimming enthusiast alike. If you love the water this is the place for you.
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 photographer's 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!
