Is this where I find the Utah divers?

Hey everyone,

I'm moving to Salt Lake City soon and I'm wondering about the dive scene there. I've found a few shops and clubs online, but I'm curious what the community has to say. If anyone has any thoughts or recommendations, I always appreciate it.

The local shops and dive clubs are far more active on Facebook. Join Dive Addicts Anonymous, Rocky Mountain Dive club and Utah Scuba Divers. Each do a local monthly dive (or two) or will run trips to California.

A lot of cold mountain lake diving here, but luckily a pretty active and passionate following. Good shops for beginners all the way up through CCR as well.

Welcome to Utah.

To Facebook it is! Thanks for the tip. Cold mountain lake diving has sort of been the thing here. My avatar photo was taken in Austria last year.

Very cool you will fit right in then. Transferring to Hill?

Ah. Welcome.

 

[Dive Addicts]

We have a lot of events coming up the next two months, but as enduser mentioned, we are much more active on facebook. When we do post here, it is usually to direct people to the facebook event pages - they are just too easy to create and update

Anyway, welcome to Utah! We look forward to diving with you.

I'm already signed up and receiving the fb notifications. My equipment probably won't get to SLC until September at best. I also need to get all of stuff serviced and conduct a few pool dives to get back into the swing of things. It's been about 18 months since my last dive.

I hold an PADI Advanced and am considering taking that further. My wife is somewhat interested in taking a basic course after I took her to a Discover Scuba here in Germany. I'll probably hit up the fb page for a good shop recommendation once we get it town.

Thanks!
