Hi all! My wife and I are looking at visiting Kauai for several months once vaccinations are widespread. It'd be great to get any advice on the diving scene - I dive and she doesn't. Certainly would love to hit Niihau while I'm there but would also like to know about any other "must dive"...

Thanks for all of this. My dive buddy and I have been trying to get ahold of Millbrook but no luck. Looking forward to Juturna when it opens. Happy diving if you make it out this weekend. Do you know how the rental tanks there work? When I went for my AOW we had a pair from our dive shop we...

Hi all, Are there any dive sites near to the DC area that are currently open? I know that Lake Phoenix is but was wondering about Lake Millbrook, Dutch Quarry, and perhaps some other local shore dives. Looking to get some dives in soon to test out some new equipment for the season. Thanks! Alex

Thanks for getting back to me Nick! She did her discover scuba in the Azores. They were training a new DM and had them lead the training. Her mask fogged early during the actual dive and as she didn't feel comfortable enough to clear it she didn't get to see much. We both love island trips and...

Hello, We are visiting Kauai in late March and wanted to get some thoughts on scuba activities. I am a new diver and getting my AOW certification before we go. My wife did a discover scuba experience with me last year and had a bad experience with a rushed training and not feeling confident...
