Hello folks.
I'm traveling to Mallorca for a conference in mid November & would like to take a couple of days to dive.
I know the general "season" ends on 21st October, but am still looking for recommendations:
- what location should I focus on ? west side, east side, north side ? other ...
I will likely be diving in mostly warm water climates, should I purchase my own wetsuit? Will a full body rash guard suffice? Just a shorty or long sleeve swimsuit? Is it worth it to purchase your own computer? Brands you recommend? I welcome any advice!
Hey everyone
I tested out an xdeep BP/W setup a few weeks ago and decided to try and put together one of my own. Unfortunately, the dive shop I usually work with is a bit far away and has been really dragging their feet getting me info about purchasing one.
I have a few local dives scheduled...
I've seen some discussion on Pemba and thanks for the great advice, but one thing I haven't seen is tips on specific dive shops. Looking to make a trip to Pemba for Christmas, so does anyone have experience that could be shared for dive shops worth booking with? (or avoiding). Thanks.
Hello,
My girlfriend's son and I just certified as open-water divers and we are enjoying it very much. Currently we are located in Germany, but one is moving moving to Canada and the other to Florida. I think I am set on a regulator, the Scubapro MK 17 EVO G260, in my research it appears to be a...
Just spent a week on Bonaire and did business with Wannadive South (EEG 3 Boulevard). Excellent experience in every way! I was a Bonaire and shore diving newbie, and a little nervous about it. But owner/operator Bart Snelder is so welcoming and helpful; and the shop so pristine and organized...
Hi all!
I am looking for destination recommendations for a November dive trip for 4 divers. Two of our party would prefer to not go to Bonaire (my wife and I are going in May) as they have done it enough and gearing up on the back of a truck is no longer all that easy for either of them...
I finished the pool portion of my SSI Open Diver certification yesterday. I had the less-expensive rental regulator and less fancy BC. I don't know the brands. The reg looked plasticky. I labored to breathe all day. The instructor said he wanted us to be used to both a better regulator...
I am putting together a parts list for a Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mk II + Nauticam system, and was hoping to get some recommendations on the following lens choices.
Fisheyes:
Panasonic Lumix G Fisheye 8mm f/3.5
or
Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 8mm f/1.8 Fisheye PRO
There isn't a big difference in price...
Hi, I am a new diver and got my OW certification 3 months ago. Before my next dive vacation I am looking to buy my first dive computer. I have read about RGBM computers being too conservative so am looking for a more liberal one. I have set my mind on buying either aqua lung i300c or i200c but...
Hey Everyone!
I'm pretty new to diving and my fiance and I are going on a cruise for our honeymoon. Through Marriott, I noticed that they have a few diving excursions out of Costa Maya and was wondering if anyone knew which shop they did those through and the quality of that shop?
They...
We have a group that may range from 7-12 and are looking for recommendations for lodging/dive shop in Curacao. I was looking at Go West but All West seems to be booked for the time we're looking at. Which BTW is Feb 2020. We could go a couple weeks earlier or later though. We aren't looking to...
Hey guys,
I've been looking all around the internet for recommendations regarding the Sony A7iii (not aA7iiiR) and it's respective Ikelite underwater housing.
Basically, I'm a new instructor and fanatical photographer and have been researching for a good reliable entry camera that can also...
Hi all,
I currently own an Aqualung LX Supreme regulator set and Atomic Aquatics T3 regulator set for my single tank diving.
I have just started sidemount diving and used Apeks XTX50 during my training. I liked them but not a fan of the small purge button. I have a XDeep stealth 2.0 Rec BC and...
I have a 20 day trip to Thailand booked in June. I understand this is hurricane season but this was the only time of year I could make it work. I am planning to see a couple different parts of the country after recovering from jet lag in Bangkok: one part in the North near Chiang Mai and...
Hi All,
First time posting!
I'm looking for recommendations for a 3-4 day liveaboard to the Similan Islands before the season closes this year. I've been diving for 3 years and have probably 60ish dives logged.
I moved to Singapore from Boston back in the fall (regular diver on Cape Anne)...
I thought I would start a new Sri Lanka post rather than adding to an existing one.
We're currently in Tangalle and will be working our way along the coast back to Colombo. Can anyone recommend dive sites we shouldn't miss?
Recommendations for dive companies would be appreciated as well.
My girlfriend and I are planning to stay for about 2 weeks in the area of Playa del Carmen, Tulum or Cozumel end of September / early October. We know its hurricane season but were lucky all 3 years before while staying in Dominican Republic.
Anybody been there during that time? What weather...
Hi- I'm going to Belize in a little over a month. I don't think I'll have time to do any type of pre-training but I do want to learn how to Scuba dive. I'll be in Belize for 10 days so I'm fine with spending a couple days doing the training. I know how to swim and am very comfortable in/around...
