Heading to Savannah

WetDawg · Mar 18, 2008

Hey there form sunny South Florida.

I may be heading up to GA in the next few weeks with a truck full of Scuba gear.
Is there any diving in the Savannah area? I grew up in Myrtle Beach, SC and know all the wrecks up that way, but was wondering what ya'll have to dive further south.

Any local knowledge would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Wes

Good luck. I was working around SeaIsland(Brunswick) for three weeks last year in the summer. I could not find one dive boat trip. Well, Dixie Divers did have a boat, but I was not going to rent the whole boat just for a dive. :shakehead:

Scubamarket USA: Savannah Scuba gear NAUI & PADI Scuba Instruction Shop
Talk with BOB, the owner, operator, and captain at SCUBAMARKET USA. He just relocated to the new shop and was talking about starting up charters at Gray's Reef again. He would also be the best person to talk to about who he would trust to charter. If you do get something going, and if I am not working, I would love to dive with you!

Do a search on Scubaboard.
Theres a guy on here that i've talked to. I think he goes by Capt.Walt. Runs a boat out of Savannah.
I plan on looking him up next time i'm over his way.

Here's the link...

I dove with Capt Walt last summer out of Savannah, and had a great time .
He runs a very nice dive operation.
Link to his site. : : Mako Dive Charter : :

I have heard good things about Capt. Walt! Hope you can get some dives in. Everything I have seen filmed at Gray's...it's pretty pristine. There is an anchor on the reef that they say may have belonged to Blackbeard.
