New to ScubaBoard & Bermuda September Dive Buddy

[Bloehr]

I'm new to ScubaBoard and have already have found a wealth of information...thank you! My wife and I are vacationing in Bermuda from September 12th - 21st. She will snorkle from shore, but will not consider scuba diving. I'm looking for a dive buddy or a group that would not mind me tagging along. While in Bermuda, I'm interested in doing 3-4 two tanks morning dives. I am certified as a scuba diver with 10+ dives in the Bahamas.

Feel free to respond to this post or email me directly.

Safe travels!

bloehr,
welcome to this board.
you will love bermuda.
she has a lot of history.
that is why she has almost 400 wrecks.
most of the diving is shallow.

my wife and i stayed at grotto bay.
triangle divers has their shop at the resort.
this made it easy to walk to the boat.

i do not think you will get more than 2 dives in the am.

while on the island, do not miss going bell helmet diving.
my wife, who does not swim, loves to bell helmet dive.
they rig you up then you WALK down the ladder to the bottem.
you are greeted by the dm, then you WALK around the coral heads and look at all the fish.
too cool.

please do not miss going to the swizzle inn.
they have a house drink that is very tasty.
regards,
smokey

Thanks Smokey...

I've read about the Swizzle Inn...something about "You swizzle in and stumble out". I heard whatever the drink is to order it in pitchers. Sounds like my kind of drink!
Is there a better place for me to post on the forum looking for someone to dive with?

Thanks again!
