Hello divers! I'm new to diving and the forum!

Hello everyone,

It's nice to be here. I will do my best to stay active and engage in conversations.

I'm brand new to the world of scuba diving. I am not certified yet but I have my open water course booked for February and I am beyond stoked to start this amazing sport.

I'm looking froward to spend my hard earned money on gear and trips, sink my teeth into everything that comes with it and learn a lot a long the way..... oh, and also swim with sharks one day!

Good day and welcome! be sure to do your research before throwing money at your local dive store! buy something you can use now and in the future when you have more experience, don't just buy the most expensive/cheapest option! happy diving

Very good tip! Will make sure to purchase long lasting equipment! How long have you been diving for? What's your best diving memory?
