I have recently enrolled in SSI scuba classes(with nitrox cert) in Missouri I will be doing five open water dives at the Bonne Terre Mines(depth 50-60 ft) during Feb with the intention of diving Jupiter in march on my upcoming Spring Training vacation. I called Jupiter Dive Center and talked to a very heplful man and explained my newness and plans mostly worried about my inexperience ruining more experienced divers time he said i should be fine if I got my certification and felt comfortable. I have my hotel booked and was planning to dive on a tues only day i can but havent reserved a spot yet.Then I discovered this site and am learning about Drift dives the greater depths and Jupiter proabably not being for new divers. I have always wanted to dive a strong swimmer 31 yo male and in decent shape. knowing this now would I be better off driving down to West Palm Beach to dive at shallower depths this is something I will bring up with my dive instuctor but wanted some of your opinions on what i should do. Jupiter looks amazing but I can always come back in a few years after I get more experience but I have to get my first ocean dive on this trip.
