hello from savannah

[evidsav]

Hello everyone! I'm a graduate student at SCAD savannah, and I just got my GUE rec 1 certification. just want to say hi to everyone. And I am also looking for some nearby place to dive and practice —— I searched in SB and they said I have to drive 4hrs to FL spring to dive. That's a little bit too far. Anyone know of any shore dives, lakes, or quarries closer to Savannah that are a bit more closer than spring dive for practice? I'd really appreciate any tips or suggestions!

Also, if there are any other GUE divers around who wanna dive somewhere in GA or FL , I’d be totally up for it!

Check out divebuddy.com. You can use scuba earth and find dive sites and dive buddies within specified distances from your location.

Oh, and welcome to Scubaboard. There is a great wealth of knowledge and information here.

I have driven 5 hours from Atlanta to the FL springs many times. We're fortunate to have these world-famous springs THAT close to us.

Aww man. I have a senior at SCAD and have been going to Savanah for the past 4 years and no diving when I’m there cause I couldn’t find any local info or dive boats. I’ll be there in May for a week during graduation if you want to dive somewhere I just don’t know where?!! I’m GUE Fundies Rec pass.

I live outside of Savannah. My “local” diving is West Palm Beach.

I believe Georgia Southern has a dive club based on conversation I had with a student.
