Blue Hole, Santa Rosa, NM:
An excellent training location. It is about a 6-hour drive, and makes for a fun weekend trip. There are plenty of motels for our two-night stay, as Santa Rosa is on Interstate 40. It is home to the most unique geological phenomenon in the Southwest, the Blue Hole, which is often referred to as "Natures Jewel". It is an 81 foot deep artesian spring. The beautiful bell shaped, clear pool remains at a constant 64 degree temperature, permitting diving all year round. Due to its amazing clarity, Blue Hole has become a favorite place for many scuba divers, photographers, and sightseers.
Local:
Chatfield State Park has a lake for diving just south of Kingfisher pond. There are artifacts to explore and crayfish and other freshwater fish. Aurora Reservoir has a reserved area just for scuba diving. It has a Cessna 310 to dive on. Surface temp in the low 70's in summer. Tons of crayfish, and many other freshwater fish as well. Chatfield and Aurora are quick and convenient local spots to gain your certification during the summer months.
