Technical diving in Florida Keys: 4 dive centres on TecDiveTools, with agencies, courses taught and a summary of what students say. 1 publish course prices.
No dive centres here offer Intro to Cave, so that filter was removed.
TecDiveTools lists 4 dive centres teaching technical diving in Florida Keys, United States. 1 of them publish course prices, in the currency the shop advertises and with the date each was checked — not converted, and not estimated.
Listings are ordered by how much evidence exists about their technical diving, not by a star rating, with any paid Featured listing shown first and marked as such (how rankings work). 3 of these 4 carry reviews we have read and classified as being about technical or overhead training. The count excludes recreational certifications by name, so a busy resort does not outrank a one-instructor cave operation on the volume of its reef trips. Separately, 2 have at least one instructor whose reviews we have read and summarised — a dive centre carries no synthesis of its own. How we read and count reviews.

Off Key Largo, the Spiegel Grove and the Bibb reach about 40 m and are used for decompression and wreck-penetration training. In the United States, Florida is the centre of technical training. North-central Florida's cave country — the springs around High Springs, Ginnie Springs and Peacock Springs — is where much of modern cave-diving practice and training developed, and its high-flow, cooler, often tannin-stained systems build skills that transfer anywhere. The Panhandle adds one of the world's great technical wrecks: the aircraft carrier USS Oriskany off Pensacola, with its flight deck at about 43 m and the sand at about 65 m.
TDI (4), counted by how many of the 4 dive centres listed in Florida Keys, United States teach each. The agency sets the standards and issues the card; the centre sets the price and schedule.
Yes — 3 of the 4 dive centres listed in Florida Keys, United States teach rebreather courses. Most often: TDI Semi-Closed Rebreather (2), TDI Advanced Mixed Gas CCR (1), TDI Air Diluent CCR (1) and TDI Air Diluent CCR Decompression Procedures (1). CCR training is unit-specific, so check which units a listing supports.
The springs dive all year at a constant temperature. After heavy rain, rivers can back-flood some springs with tannic water, lowering visibility or closing sites, so follow local conditions. Hurricane season (June to November) mainly affects ocean and wreck diving.
The springs are about 22°C (72°F) year-round — cool enough that most cave divers wear a drysuit for long dives. Ocean water off the Keys runs from the low 20s °C in winter to around 30°C in summer.
