Next week I'm going to be traveling in the Salt Lake City area for work and remembered reading about SeaBase before, where they have tropical fish like puffers, pompanos, big nurse sharks, angel fish, etc. Sounds like a cool experience, diving in the middle of the mountains with all these warmwater saltwater fish but wanted to get some feedback:
http://www.seabase.net/thefish.html
1) Is it worth making a side trip there or not that great of a dive? I've heard mixed reviews, kind of small, visibility isn't great, etc. However with the warm water of 75-85 per the website, wouldn't have to bring much, regulator, small bc, and a 3 mm wetsuit. So now I'm trying to decide whether to pack my things or too much trouble for a single dive or two.
2) If it is worthwhile, any local divers willing to buddy up? Since I'm just there for work, I'm the only diver and don't know any divers there. Let me know if anyone would be up for a dive------if I do go, it will be next Saturday, Oct 23rd in the morning.
Thanks for any feedback and info,
Robert
