Long before it became an official park, Ginnie Springs in northern Florida was well known in the dive community and quite popular. But it was also known to be treacherous, claiming the lives of over 30 divers since1960. The spring’s modern history started in the mid-1900s when scuba diving became popular. Divers flocked to Florida’s numerous caves, but sadly between 1960 and 1975 over 150 people died in the winding underwater passageways. Most of these fatalities were caused by inexperienced divers lacking the necessary qualifications and gear. As a result, many of the state’s public springs were closed to diving all together.
Diving the devil’s cave system at Ginnie Springs is always a great experience. The outflow can be strong at times but further inside the cave, swimming becomes less energy draining. The water is usually gin clear and with proper lights and film gear, filming the fascinating cave structure is not that difficult to execute. Devil’s Eye Cave Diving was filmed by Heiko Kiera in 2015.
