About Morrison Springs
Morrison Springs is a clear freshwater spring in a county park, with a broad basin, a sand bottom, and cavern openings below the surface. The shallow areas are easy to reach from the boardwalk and diving dock, while the deeper openings are the part that draws certified divers. It is a relaxed place for swimming, snorkeling, and scuba, but you need to respect the cave-style sections and watch for wildlife. The park is popular, so plan for other visitors and follow the posted hours.
