moving to Big Island Hawaii.....!

[inked_diver]

Howdy,
I am a PADI MSDT moving to the Hilo side of the Big Island. I am moving for a mental health job, but am interested in talking to anyone who dives on the big island! I hope to teach in some capacity on Hawaii, and am really looking to meet some dive buddies! Please drop me a line or post any info you may have about my new home. Thanks in advance

You will need mental health to live Hilo side! Only one real dive shop over there doing the cruz ship gig in marginal diving conditions. Lots of HUGE turtles thou. Kona side is the dive mecca. I can hook you up with some folks if you like. PM me with any questions. I love the big isle!

Hi,

The Hilo side is nice, but just a bit rainy! We have never been there when the dive shop is open...all I wanted was one tee shirt! The diving on the Windward (=Hilo) Side is a little tricky. Lots of current, surge etc. Brah, mo bettah you come Kona Side!

joewr....
