    Seeking input on Jordanian diving....

    Sea temps should be 64 degs Fahrenheit, but there is a constant breeze blowing around this time of year, so you won't feel like hanging around in your wetsuit after a dive. A 5mm suit is adequate. You will enjoy it. Seadeuce

    Nitrox while on Liveaboards

    If you want to get the best diving, in safety, you can dive the first two dives on air. Then do the other two/three on Nitrox. That way you can dive the full range of profiles available, and feel good at the end of the day. Seadeuce

    Going Deep

    Hey Goofystan, You are doing what any sane diver would do at the beginning of his diving life - you are experimenting with the different types of diving available to you, under controlled conditions (Instr./RD accompanied) and increasing your experience level. As you do you are finding out...

    Why do you keep a logbook?

    Part of the reason I dive is for the memories. When I'm old, maybe have grandchildren, I would like to be able to recount on days when I found a little bit of paradise beneath the waves. My memory will probably be fading by then, but my trusty old logbook will contain the key to revisiting...

    Diving off the coast of England?

    I'm pretty sure I'll be choosing a school close to London, but I'm also looking at Lancaster U, which is up closer to Ireland... Hi, Suggest you fly into Shannon (Ireland) on the way to England. If you travel north or south of Shannon region you will find the best diving this country has...

    Seeking input on Jordanian diving....

    When I was there I did my diving with http://www.seastar-watersports.com/SeastarHome.html They were good. Stayed at the Alcazar Hotel, not 5* but adequate. Ate at the Chinese restaurant upstairs on the left at the top of the hill! Every night that is. Diving is all shore dives. Carried...

    Canary Islands

    The diving in the Canaries gets better as you travel west, so El Hierro would be better than Gran Canaria. The diving is more temperate than tropical, as in the Red Sea, so a direct comparison is not realistic. gozimutti is right when he says the diving is just as good as the GBR, only...

    Mediterranean scuba side-trip during honeymoon

    The most convenient diving, with good dives, is at Estartit on the Costa Brava. http://estartit-spain.spain-spanish.eu.com/ Check the link above. Malta would have a better range of dives, but is mainly shore diving, and would involve a dog-leg of an additional trip. Canaries offer...

    Overbreathing your regulator

    Having experienced the sensation of "Beating my Reg" more than once, I would like to state that, yes, the source of the problem can be mechanical, psychological, or both. If it begins as mechanical it will soon become psychological. The Stop/Breathe/Think/Act advice is solid, but I will add...

    If you broke a low pressure hose?

    FWIW I had a low pressure hose blow twice. First time at 33m (108ft), second at 17m (56ft). The rate of loss of air was 105 bar/minute. My 10l/72cf bottle emptied in just under two minutes. If it happens ever again, I would be quite happy to gauge my ascent based on these figures. If I...

    How to rescue a non-breathing diver?

    Good advice being offered here I see. Like to add a few points that will prompt some deep thinking by members, please consider the following: 1. An unconscious diver at depth may/may not have a pulse when not breathing, assume we all agree on that. The rescuer has no way of discerning...
