How to use unix find and exclude paths?
There's a great answer over on Stack Overflow covering this: Exclude directory from find . command
Essentially, the command to exclude directories from find is as follows:
find . -type d \( -path dir1 -o -path dir2 -o -path dir3 \) -prune -o -print

From the above example, you should be able to extrapolate excluding a single directory.
A brief explanation:
-type d        # type: directories
-path dir1     # your path
-o             # &quot;or&quot;
-prune         # skip the previous set
-print         # print results
