(I have edited my original statement, because I believe I should not recommend what others can do.) I have, and know many other divers that have, mixed casual shallow scuba and occasional shallow freediving for decades with no problems. Mixing either type of dives to extreme, can and has caused problems.
The water level in Devils Den and Blue Grotto is actually quite high and clear right now. The stairs platform, that is often dry (second photo), was about 5 feet deep.
This is John L, the resident monster cat at Devil's Den! I'm guessing he goes about 40 lbs. You have to stalk him to get a photo, and he wouldn't let me get him in line with my student for a size reference.
