40 Fathom Grotto, FL 27 June 1999 Hal Watts' Forty Fathom Grotto is a deep hole in the ground just north and west of Ocala. It's depth is 240 feet, with sheer walls and overhangs. I consider it a nice place to make a couple dives. Especially if you want to experience deep and/or night (no light under the overhangs and duck weed). Joshua and I accompanied the staff of The Dive Station and others to this site. Joshua did his first deep dive today (130 feet). We descended a float line to a submerged boat then made a slow ascent. The second and third dives where around the spring (a 360), at around 50-70 feet.
