Surfing and Local Diving

digitalreefer · 03-30-2007, 04:11 PM

Water temp is finally above 40... dive season starts in a couple of weeks and it's warm enough to surf with a 5mm suit.

Just wanted to see who on MR is up for surfing and / or diving this season!

Let me see if i find the time to get certified this year, but i must admit, i'm not looking forward to diving around here...LOL

jk E, I'd go with you if I was certified still, maybe i can work on that this summer

Wreck Valley is the best diving in the world... not many pretty fish, no corals, but awesome diving. I have pretty fish and corals in my living room... I dive to see shipwrecks!

I got certified this summer and would be interested in learning about diving opportunities around here. what are you looking at when you look at the wrecks -- I dove two wrecks in Eilat, but they were partly about the boats, but partly about the corals and fish that make their homes in/on the wreck!

ok certified was the wrong word, I learned when I was 14 in the caymans.
I'd need to get certified.

Once you dive Hawaii and Tahiti, you won't dive here

.

I dove Hawaii recently, if I lived their, I'd dive everyday and become a bum
