Vortex
Spring produces 28 million gallons of gin clear water daily at a year-round
temperature of 68
Student training platforms are provided for instruction at the 20-foot level along with a "talk box," (a large inverted container anchored to a concrete base providing air space for conversation). The spring basin is 50 feet deep at the mouth to a beautiful ledge-like cavern. There are two artificial caves, open at both ends, providing training and fun for divers who are not yet cavern/cave certified. River catfish, harmless American Freshwater Eels , Redhorse Suckers, and a school of very rare, exotic "Shadow Bass" will be your constant companions. There is no thermocline as this water flows directly from the aquifer.
Since there is no current, the springs provide an excellent venue for certification dives.
