Florida City offers year-round diving possibilities, though summer months from May through September deliver the most consistent conditions with water temperatures in the comfortable 75-85°F range. Afternoon dives are particularly rewarding as the sun's angle creates beautiful light patterns filtering through the water. Visibility typically ranges from 30-60 feet depending on recent weather patterns, with calmer days offering the clearest views. Pack light clothing for before and after your dive, and consider bringing a rashguard for additional comfort underwater. Don't forget sun protection for surface intervals – the Florida sun is powerful even on partly cloudy days. Local diving spots feature a mix of natural formations and artificial reefs that attract diverse marine life. Ray tailors each diving location to suit your skill level and interests, whether you're focused on improving techniques or maximizing wildlife encounters.
Preparing for your Florida City diving adventure is simple. Sessions typically begin with a 30-minute equipment fitting and safety briefing at the designated meeting point. Arrive 15 minutes early wearing comfortable clothing with your swimwear underneath. Bring a towel, sunscreen, and a water bottle to stay hydrated. For optimal comfort, avoid heavy meals right before diving, but do have a light snack about 2 hours prior. Your diving package includes all essential scuba gear, though you're welcome to bring personal equipment if you prefer. Ray recommends bringing an underwater camera if you have one – Florida City's waters offer excellent photo opportunities. Each dive incorporates skill practice alongside leisurely exploration, creating a balanced experience that builds confidence while showcasing the underwater environment. These guided scuba sessions are perfect for certified divers looking to refresh skills or adventurous beginners wanting a proper introduction to the sport.
