First dive trip set!

[thbcthomas]

Well i do not have it planned just yet, but we have bought the flights to Orlando. Going to do Universal Studios for couple days and hoping to get down to West Palm Beach and do some diving with Stuart Scuba.

So excited as we just signed my 13 year son up for certification and cant wait to do some diving with good visibility. Plan on doing morning boat dive and then BHB that evening and the next morning. I hope BHB is as good as I have read on the board.

Please post a trip report when you get back and let us know if it was. Have a great time.

I attended the Scuba board event at Cayman Brac.
While there I spoke with some people from that area regarding diving the BHB and they all agreed that is was an awesome locale.

It should be good for you!

@sheeper is on SB and is affiliated with Stuart Scuba. He has been very helpful to others.

You will be tied to the high tides for your diving at the BHB Tide Tables & Charts for Port of Palm Beach (Lake Worth) by TIDES.net. A guide might help you quite a bit, especially for your 1st dive. @Scuba_Jenny has a stellar reputation on SB

@scubadada, whoever i spoke with at Stuart Scuba over the phone absolutely blew me away with how helpful and nice they were. I talked with many dive ops up and down south florida and had good experience with all of them, but the service I received from Stuart Scuba BLEW ME AWAY. We are planning on having a guide at least on the first BHB dive.

May cant get here quick enough.

+1 for @Scuba_Jenny who guides there. Many of the photos in the Blue Heron Bridge Trolls III thread are hers.

While in Orlando I was thinking of stopping in at divers direct because i have found some really good deals on their website. Does anyone have any dealings with them, ate they a reputable company?

They are reputable but not the best deals. The shop I hang with meets or beats those prices.
