It's found in Exodus 14:

"And the children of Israel went INTO THE MIDST OF THE SEA UPON DRY GROUND: and THE WATERS WERE A WALL UNTO THEM on their right hand, and on their left." (verse 22)

"...I would not that ye would be ignorant, how that ALL OUR FATHERS WERE UNDER the Cloud, and ALL PASSED THROUGH THE SEA; and WERE ALL BAPTIZED UNTO MOSES in the Cloud and IN THE SEA... for they all drank of that Spiritual ROCK that followed them: and that ROCK was CHRIST." (I Cor.10;1-4)

Is the baptism of the holy spirit a separate experience from being baptized in water?

There are many different teachings about baptism, but most recognize that they are entirely distinct from each other. The word baptitso in Greek means to dip. In the Bible we recognize these two baptisms: The baptism of the Holy Spirit occurs at the moment of conversion, and is an act by the Holy Spirit of joining a believer to "the body of Christ" - 1Corinthians 12:13,- the entire chapter deals with this baptism. Water baptism is a symbolic ritual of a convert identifying with Christ in His death burial and resurrection. - Romans 6:4 There is also John's baptism that often adds to the confusion - Acts 19:3, but that's an Old Testament thing as John was the last of the Old Testament prophets.
