Is there anything at Mill Pond, Jackson Blue, etc., for an open water diver? I'm thinking of stopping by there to take a quick look, but will be with a couple of open water divers.

Short answer: no.
Long answer: there's nothing around the millpond that would be interesting to an open water diver. Unless they're brand new, in which case anything underwater is cool. The entrances to Twin and Shangri-La would apply. But if they're experienced divers, this would be boring.

Yes, that's what I thought. Thanks. They might enjoy a rental canoe ride, but probably not waiting for my return from a cave dive!

I don't know that I agree, Russell. There's no depth at the Mill Pond, but there's a lot of life there. If the OW divers don't mind not being able to go much deeper than 10', they will encounter a lot in the Mill Pond. You just need to know where to look.

One of the most exciting dives I have ever had was being towed behind a boat in the middle of the night down the Mill Pond. Things with eyes are darting all around you and tree stumps pop up out of nowhere. Like underwater skiing.
That is actually an event in the Darwin Olympics.Originally Posted by OutlawCaver
