I live in the Florida Panhandle, and the cave diving in Merritt's Mill Pond is off the charts. The answer to all of the questions you pose is yes, no problem. For instruction, you've got Edd Sorenson, he's among the best. Anything you want on your list is in the shop.

Key largo is my backyard. Horizon is the company to go with. They have He and O2 on site and can get you sorb if you ask ahead. The charters allow you to do up to 2:20 run time on the deep wrecks, primarily the Speigel Grove but occasionally the bib, Duane and northern lights. I did 134 mins this morning. I think there are some other deeper wrecks they go to as well. Grand has sorb and fills via dive tech but no tech guides or trips these days I’m told. Utila has a couple of shops that have rebreather divers/instructors as does neighboring Roatan (check roatan tech center at coconut tree) .

Galapagos-Dirty Dozen is doing CCR liveaboard trips.

Vancouver Island- Depends where you go and who you know. Generally speaking you have to arrange sorb, O2, etc ahead of time.

Grand Cayman- DiveTech.

Hi all,

Here on Scubaboard there are lots of great reports of locations for OC diving and I would love to start one for CC diving.

I would consider these requirements for a location to be suitable for this list:
1. You can get O2 fills
2. You can buy sorb
3. Local laws allow for rebreather diving
4. You can get air fills

Nice to haves:
1. You can get guides for technical dives
2. You can get trimix fills
3. You can rent rebreather tanks
4. You can rent DPV

It can be:
1. Any type of diving: fresh water/sea, shore/boat/LOB, quarry/cave/OW/wreck, Rec/tec
2. Any country globally

When you post, please add link to dive operator you are referring to if possible.

Keen to hear your experiences and bucket list locations.

Just a plug here, but belowthegrade.com

I offer all of those services on 3 out of 5 Great lakes.

Amazing wreck diving and you don't have to rinse anything.
