LOL......I did have a fear of encountering sharks in the water for some time after becoming certified but the overwhelming beauty below soon won me over. I am atually more afraid of encountering a shark while swimming and not diving. I am more afraid of what I can't see with the aid of my...

Welcome Desiree. We are really worlds apart but obviously both like to dive. I usually hear of friend going to South Africa for the safaris. .....

Using the MH25 / S600 here and loving it.......No complaints

I bought the MK25 /S600 one year ago and love it. The breathing is so much easier......

What point and shoot cameras are recommended for beginning? And will they accomodate strobes?

Oohhh What I forgot to tell you is that the area at the bridge is a huge nursery environment. In addition to all the babies we can see manatees....HUGE stingrays, octopus, nudis, sea stars, horseshoe crabs galore....See the rest at the website.....Hope this helps.

As far as beach entry shallow diving in Florida you may also consider an area further north than Key Largo and Ft Lauderdale. In Riviera Beach (Palm Beach County) there is a phenominal dive spot at the Blue Heron Bridge. Get a hotel room on Singer Island and the brisge is a hop-skip-and jump...

I still can't decide which I prefer. Got caught in some rippin' current several days ago and felt like my Atomic split fins weren't quite giving me the push I needed; however, with my more leisurely dives they are so much easier on my knees. I'm sooo confused....Can I get a dive bag big...

I can not imagine how Tina's family must be tormented by not only her death but the horrific manner in which she died. There just has to be something else in store for him.....

BarryTX......I also returned after many years off and wow! Things have come so far! I upgraded to a Scubapro BC, Scubapro MK25/S600 Reg...(after realizing how much easier the new regulators breath than my OLD one), Galileo Sol, Atomic fins.......And a refresher class, Nitrox cert and couldn't...

How intense that must have been! We will all be waiting for the rest of the story.

Several of us dove the bridge yesterday and as is always the case.....It is amazing! We saw a Swollen Claw Mantis for the first time over by the moored boats.....We never went deeper than 14 feet by the boats and saw one of the biggest Sting Rays I have ever seen actively hunting and unphased...

Bought the Luminox for my hubby and wound up sneaking it from him to take with ME diving as I LOVE the easy read......Hubby got me into diving and then stopped........I'm the obsessed one now sneaking in new gear....And the fin strap springs are a must have.....

Now a new question on an old discussion for you very experienced divers.....I love using steel tanks and rent them whenever possible as I like the lack of fluctuation in bouyancy during the dive. I can make it easily through the dive with an 80cf but recently used a 100cf thinking I would have...

How funny!! I got some strange looks when I cut the neck on my rash guard......I still believe I must have been choked in a previous life......I wear almost exclusively farmer jane wetsuits and then if needed I add something on top that is open in front. I have a full wetsuit and dread the...

Beautiful one-year old 3bdr/3ba 3000 sq ft home, minutes away from Looe Key Reef.....28+ day rental months Sepember thru December 2009 will land you 2 FREE Miami Dolphin (Home Game) tickets for one game .....Section 107...... Kayak and swim out the back door.....then go see the Miami Dolphins...

I enjoyed reading your post.....Having learned to dive because of my husband many years ago, reliant on him entirely. Raising family caused some time off from diving but now, years later I have the dive bug and my husband does not! So I, by myself, re-certed and went on for my nitrox and hop a...

Thanks Tammy.....I went to my LDS and tried the MK25/S600 and was blown away as its ease of breathing....When I would close the flow on the Scubapro the greatest restriction, that was how my US Divers reg was breathing......and at 90 feet...No wonder I was feeling anxious... Thanks to...

Fuzz I am just now reading your original and subsequent postings and can totally relate. Its odd that when I originally learned to dive 15 yrs ago I had no fear and quickly got my AOW. But I took a break from diving due to family and even though I took a refresher class I have anxiety with...

Can anyone tell me if any particular regulator is known for easiest breathing? My current regulator is a trusty old US Diver. I know it will need to be replaced and I figured I'd start the research before it needed replacing...Thanks
