Deep Dixie Diver Mega Trip to Key Largo WHEN Discussion Thread

[philmottrek99and02]

Does she snorkle? Most dive ops in Key Largo often carry snorklers if they are out on the reef. Just a thought.

Well, I'm in MS, so would I be considered a Deep Dixie?

None-the-less, my wife says I cannot go further south than Pensacola without her on my next trip and she's a none diver. For us that have family that don't dive, something like a cruise would be perfect! I do have a 10 month old son so I have some obstacles to jump over, but it's all good! =)

One thing that should be said is, if it's a cruise, everyone will need a passport!

Ah, yeah, she loves to snorkel, never though of that =P

Why snorkel when you can go underwater!

HI, my name is Debi and I'm actually new to diving. I've logged 7 dives between Blue water and Kings Bay, Florida. I'm looking to quickly expand those numbers though. I would love to Key Largo! However, my husband wouldn't be able to go with due to work but has said that if I could find a group to go with where he could be assured that I would have dive buddy that he would encourage me to go. When do you guys have in mind and would you mind a beginner tagging along?

Ahoy and welcome to SB. We welcome all levels. We can plan the dives to match your needs. I am new to diving as well. If you'd like to catch us at Blue Water in Pelham, there is going to be a hearty group this weekend and a group on 10 Feb diving. The more fun group will be diving on the 10th! Plan on coming out. You might want to check on rental at Blue Water, since they have reduced their stockages. I think we are planning something semi social after the dives. If you consider hanging around the Deep Dixie Divers as being social. (I am so gonna burn for that comment!)

Now the when. There are many thoughts of when but probably the best time would be June or Sep/Oct. Some have children out of school in June, so that is why we are looking then. I am trying to avoid July and August due to high chance of Hurricanes, so that leaves Sep/Oct as another alternative.

What's ye druthers?

Howard

I'll definatly look towards the dive on the 10th. I have two kids so I can relate to what you're saying as far as the school and everything like that. When you say you're planning something semi social....well what's your definition of semi social and would my husband be welcomed to hang out while we dive?

Semi Social - Man alive you are trying to infer that this group is social. Semi social means nothing fancy, host has agreed to provide the main dish, others are expected to chip side dishes I suppose.

Look at this link.

Sure spouses are welcome. Send a Private Message to our host and address other family members that are non-divers. Hope to meet you.
