There are so many cheap flight to Florida from where u r and quick. Living in the northwest it’s a long day travel and twice the price but still worth every penny to dive warm blue water. I certified on a 29 degree day ocean temp was 37 and vis was about 7 feet. Makes me shiver just thinking about it. I still dive it every now and then but I love warm blue waters.
DRIS is a great shop but not in the NW suburbs. Crystal Lake is though.

If you're implying the Crystal Lake dive shop is better than DRIS, you are sorely mistaken.
Just say no.

same here was raining waves 1-3 and captain would not go to planed dive ended going to a no name wood wreck just outside harbor the vizabilaty or lake of vizabilaty 2' at best that was my 1st and last time going to Indiana to dive
Marie I don't know how you would know I was sorely mistaken unless you spent time at both shops which seems unlikely.
However that is not what I said.
DRIS is quite a ways farther south for someone in the "North West" burbs. Depending on how far north, DRIS is quite a haul from say Antioch or Crystal Lake. Your loyalty is admirable but doesn't make DRIS the best location for everyone.

I'm a certified diver living in Chicago, always looking to meet new divers. I also have a gopro hero5 and love taking pictures. I usually email the photos so they can show friends and families of their adventure
