Yeah, that's been our experience but I guess I was hoping for miracles or hidden secrets so just had to ask. Thanks for the input.

My husband and I are spoiled by warm clear Caribbean waters or the less warm but still clear Hawaiian waters. But it's frustrating to have to wait all year for the next dive. Took our boat out around Orange Beach and it was essentially no-viz till you got to 40ft. Nothing much to see, but still...

nice info.. do you have any insight on rental homes?? small ones for just 2 people??

our three days were great so we added one more to do a couple of shore dives on the north shore at waimae bay .. had a great time on all dives. really appreciate Gabe's conscious efforts at keeping things smooth and easy on the boats and he is 4 out of 5 for finding everything on my checklist ;)...

we were on those dives and they were great :D

I have heard good things about Gabe Scotti at www.waikikiscuba.com but I have not actually dove with them yet. Me & my husband do have 3 days booked with them for August tho. I know they do both shore diving and set up for boat diving but I don't think they own their own boat. Do a search in...

soooooo???? how'd it go??? :popcorn: i'm looking at a trip for October and have never been.. need some fresh input!!

Talked with Gabe last night (Kaimana Divers: SCUBA Diving in Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii, Waikiki) finalized the air, hotel and car this morning (finally put that entertainment book coupon for $200 off an orbitz vacation to use) and we are BOOKED for Oahu for August 6-13 :D I've been once to Oah'u...

you gonna get yummy sandwiches for me and my hubby when we dive with you aug 8-10? :D

went to Bonaire in April but my heart wasnt really into it (it was my first trip since my dad died and that plus a few other things just really kept things subdued). was supposed to go on a Blackbeard's Cruise in the Bahamas in June but that was a complete disaster... so instead of...

:D Tuesday, July 07, 2009 It's a Girl! MEMPHIS, Tenn. – “Asali,” an African elephant at the Memphis Zoo gave birth to a female calf at approximately 10:23pm on July 6 after a gestation of 1 year, 9 months, and 15 days. Currently, Asali and her calf are in healthy, stable condition...

I still log every dive but I'm only on 130 or 140 or something around there.. and I write in my log for a few reasons. One, so I can be reminded of how much weight in a particular location with or without a wetsuit.. not that it really matters because I use different amounts now than I did...

glad to see you are already feeling better and excited about your next dive. i have 120 dives under me in murky fresh water, beautiful clear warm water and ripping currents that felt like being flushed down a toilet (my fiance's wording!). i have occasionally had a bit of the panic...

Sadly, we did not get to even go. Last Friday, we had tornados shut down Olive Branch, MS (just south of Memphis, TN) and lost land phones, cell phones, internet and power. All kinds of flights were cancelled and delayed and with all communication being disrupted (you'd get a call to connect...

Scubadviser | Scuba Diving | Dive Centre Reviews | Liveaboard Reviews is a website specifically for reviewing dive operators, shops and liveaboards. they are still getting things up and running but have a decent start. i did not go into their other sections that go into the eco and political...

severe weather in Memphis on Friday nite prevented Delta's plane from coming in, so our 6am flight out was cancelled. Delta's only offered alternative would put us in Freeport SUNDAY instead of Saturday. the weather knocked out power, telephone lines and cell towers. satellite and cable were...

Me & my guy will be on Blackbeard's out of Freeport June 13... our first time on Blackbeard's and first time in the Bahamas. I didn't realize how many boats Blackbeard's actually had.

Thank you so much for the responses. I guess I didn't really expect others to read it and was posting it for me and dad. He would be tickled more than you'd think that I talked about him on a scuba board. And even more so that people were touched enough to respond. I have heard it said...

My dad was the father of three little girls that had to be taken care of so when the desire to learn to scuba hit him, he put it off. When I got certified 5 years ago and went on my first dive vacation, my dad told me how he'd always wanted to try it. But by that time he had lost 1/2 a lung...
