I'm going diving this weekend in Jacksonville, FL! Has anybody been diving in that area? How is the vis this time of year and water temp? I'm pretty excited, I haven't been diving since January so it's long over due! Not going to lie though, I'm a little nervous. I'm nervous every time before I...

So I finally had my first ocean dive yesterday! It was great (once I got under water anyway) the water was VERY choppy, almost everyone on the boat got seasick (including myself). It was definitely not the most pleasant experience but once I finally made it down it was so cool! I really need to...

I'm going diving in the ocean for the first time on Friday and I'm so excited!! I just want to know what to expect. How much different is it than fresh water?

Do you prefer weight belts or integrated weight? What are the pros and cons to both?

The only diving I've done has been in fresh water and I think I had a good amount of weight. (I'm still trying to perfect my buoyancy). Anyway, the buoyancy is different in salt water right? So how do I know how much weight I will need? I don't want to get in the ocean and have too much or not...

I'm officially in love with scuba diving! I just did my check out dives, and even though it was in a lake where viz sucked and there were a ton of other divers, it was so fun. Just the fact I was under water breathing...not in a pool, and swimming with fish! The water felt great and I did a...

I found a used BC on craigslist that I was thinking about buying. The girl said it's only been used 5 times and she is asking 200 for it. It looks nice in the picture and it's a seaquest. I haven't had a chance to go look at it yet, but I don't have much knowledge about diving equipment yet so I...

Just curious, what was the first thing you bought after you started diving? (besides the obvious mask, fins, and snorkel)

I want to go dive as often as I can, but my LDS charges about $240 for each of their dives. I don't have the money to spend on that since I'll have to rent all my gear. Even so, I can't afford to spend 200 bucks every time I want to dive! How do I go diving without breaking my bank?

So I'm new to this sport and I still need to purchase all my gear. First on my list is to buy a BCD and regulator but I just don't know all the pros and cons to them! There are so many different kinds. What are the best brands? I've been browsing craigslist but since I'm still a novice I don't...

Hi! I'm very new to the diving community, I take my cert dives next weekend and I'm super pumped! I'm not sure how much longer I can wait, the anticipation is killing me. Scuba Diving might be my new favorite activity and I've only just done it in a pool! I've been spending so much time looking...
