The Sunshine State is blessed with mild weather, lush tropical scenery and, most importantly, an abundance of coastal waters -- some 4,300 square miles in total, washing along nearly 1,200 miles of sandy shores. Divers will find an embarassment of riches both offshore and inland, ranging from the tropical reefs studding the Keys and the southern portion of the state, to the teeming sea life of the Gulf of Mexico, to the hidden wonders of the state's crystal-clear springs.

Scuttled six miles off Key West in 2009, this 520-foot-long retired Air Force missile-tracking ship sits at a depth of 140 feet, but even snorkelers can swim close to the antennae and upturned radar dishes. Large holes allow trained penetration divers to explore the engine room, 11 elevator shafts and cargo hold shafts.Local Dive Guide: Warm Water, Beginner Dives, Big Animals, Guide Needed, Year-Round

Thick schools of barracuda collect around this wreck’s crow’s nest and other structures. The 327-foot-long former Coast Guard cutter lies in 120 feet of water, and the deck starts at 105 feet deep. Sunk in 1987, it has amassed a coating of orange cup corals and sponges. Currents here attract the occasional bull shark and other exciting predators.Local Dive Guide: Warm Water, Advanced Dives, Big Animals, Guide Needed, Year-Round

Prehistoric and sort of creepy, alligator gar swarm this site by the dozens. It’s a fun drift down a fast-moving stream that’s also home to snapping turtles the size of beach balls. The flow of the grasses is mesmerizing, as is raking your fingers through the sand boils in search of fossilized shark teeth.Local Dive Guide: Cold Water, Beginner Dives, Big Animals, Guide Needed, Year-Round

Granted, the world’s largest artificial reef is best appreciated by those trained to explore the flight deck at 145 feet, but it’s still worth the 22-mile boat trek from Pensacola to witness sections of this 911-foot-long aircraft carrier (the decking island starts at 84 feet). Spanish hogfish, butterflyfish and other angelfish are common; the lucky diver can encounter anything from passing whale sharks to mantas.Local Dive Guide: Warm Water, Advanced Dives, Big Animals, Guide Needed, Year-Round
