Hi all,
I'm an ex-Michigander who frequently kicks himself in the arse for only learning to dive after moving to Arkansas.
I'm going to be up in NW lower peninsula Michigan late October/early November and was wondering about some diving options. My experience is mostly Caribbean, with the coldest being Arkansas lakes in May, so I'm thinking about taking a drysuit class either while I'm up there or before I go, with a shop I trust well.
The shop I've contacted in Traverse City informs me there aren't many if any charters going out that time of year and it would be very questionable whether I could do a wreck class with them or not. They assure me that there is a good amount of shore diving to be done that time of year, however.
My question - what is there to see from shore in late October/early November is East Lake MI?. I'll be between TC (most likely, haven't booked flights), and Onekama/Manistee region, though could probably travel a little bit for a better experience.
Any insight into shops around the area? Is anyone doing charters in the surrounding area?
Thanks in advance!
