We usually dive once every week almost all year long.
Realy? one dive a week? Why only one? Why not two? Sorry but I have seen too many people here claim the dive weekly but it's more like once every two months. Not that i realy care how much anyone dives, it all comes out when they hit the water. Ive heard it all. Most people are so full of BS they need an extra 50 lbs of lead to get down. Easy to spot thou... "excuse me, you gave me two left fins" "I am a great diver, I dive all the time. Can you show me how to put my reg on?":shakehead
 
Three weeks out of four, two dives per day then maybe two night dives in that same four week stretch. If I've got a class going that'll be fourteen to twenty dives in two to four weeks.
 
I try to get in an average of two dives per week. It's been hard to do this winter with many weeks going without. It is picking up now and I seem to be back on track. I hope to get in many more than that average though this summer.

Not enough. It's not my primary outdoor activity but I would dive more if I had a regular buddy and more $$ to spend on boat trips. I promised myself I'd dive more as the water warms up this spring. I went last weekend and will go again Saturday.
 
I'm lucky to be in the business and I get to splash an average of 8 to 12 dives a week here on Maui. Today was real nice, we saw an Eagle Ray AND a Manta on the way out to the St Anthony wreck! That doesn't happen very often!
 
4 out of five weekends I am in the water and usually do 3 dives on Saturday and 2 on Sunday.

But it is still not enough cause I constantly am thinking of diving, looking at my UW pictures and reading information on the internet.
 
At least 2-4 times a month. Three trips a year for 3 weeks and average 10-12 dives each week. so about 60-70 per year, darn that isn't enough for A RETIRED PERSON!!! Although when I worked I was lucky to get 20 a year, so it is 3 times as often now....

Headed to Freeport Bahamas next week and will get about 12 in at least. My wife will not let me do more than 2 dives a day, I have to spend time with her also:D However when I worked in the Carribean I was able to get about 5 a week minimum.
