I go to St Thomas for 2 weeks each year and the diving is great. On St Thomas the most reasonable place to dive is Coki Beach. You can do shore dives to 2 reefs up to 50 ft depth. The Coki Beach Dive Club is really friendly. Peter's boat may not look the prettiest but the crew is always great. There are plenty of boat dives to do and if you get a map of the dive sites it will keep you busy planning where you want to go. I am in North Port and do some beach dives at Venice.

Beach dive in Alaska ..... BRRRRRR. I have been checking the visibilty at Venice Beach periodicaly and it has not been good enough for me to dive or even snorkel yet. The temperatures are getting into the lower 70's and that is not too bad. I will keep checking and when it looks like we might have a good day I will call. I am retired so my time is available most any day. However, I am leaving on 4/23 for abour 3 weeks. My email is jimjulian@earthlink.net if you wish to get to me quicker.
