Places to dive a few hours from D.C.

[RickHeil]

Hi all,
I'm traveling to D.C. once a month for a week at a time and would like to begin or end the week diving on the weekends. Any suggestions?

I enjoy all sorts of dive experiences and would love to begin exploring the underwatrer worlds of N.J, Delaware, or Virginia.

I enjoy all forms of rec diving as well as intermediate tech diving.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Ya Rick:

I live in DC during the week and head back to Virginia Beach on the weekends. It's about a 200 mile 4 hour easy drive in traffic. Here's what we dive in Virginia Beach:

Thanks for the fast response... I'm looking forward to hooking up with you guys. Looks great. Vis is excellent.

I let you know when I'm coming out, probably in late July next...
I'm also excited about taking Cavern/Intro to Cave with Jim Wyatt down in Florida... many of the guys I dive with here love cave diving... so I'm catching up. More fun!
It's all good, its all wet, its all great skills development!

Cheers,
Rick
