Madison Blue Spring
Certified cave and cavern diving only: Florida State Parks diving rules [2] (No open water diving or free diving.). 以下分类采用该认证体系自身的命名方式,用于描述该潜点所需的培训级别。
The headspring of Madison Blue Spring State Park; a large cave opening about 9 metres down in the pool is the main entrance to the cave system. Certified cavern and cave divers only.
The spring pool sits in a limestone basin on the Withlacoochee River, shaded by hardwoods and pines, and is one of the region's most popular swimming holes. About 30 feet (9 metres) below the surface, a large opening leads into an extensive underwater cave.
Florida State Parks allows only certified cavern and cave divers here. Divers sign in at the front of the main boardwalk to the spring, and the park reminds visitors that it can close for hours on busy weekends once it reaches capacity.
环境
Clear first-magnitude spring water at about 22°C year-round flowing from a large cave mouth; the pool is about 25 metres wide and 7.5 metres deep before the cave entrance.
环境条件
Constant temperature of about 72°F (22°C). The park often reaches capacity and closes temporarily between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on weekends and holidays. Effective 2026-10-13 the park listed itself as closed to swimming; that notice did not mention diving.
