Hi all!

Usually I read these posts but don't write. I am fairly new to diving and drysuit diving in the Seattle-Tacoma area. I love tropical diving but in order to develop my skills I purchased a drysuit to dive local. I am a female diver and look forward to the input and suggestions of my diving comrades. Until Then.

Pac-northwest....Cooold!! I got my advanced Cert in the good old Puget Sound! Yeah, a drysuit is a good idea! Anyway, I'm not in Guam with nice bathtub temp water. Welcome to the board.

Good Luck, Chad

Hello, I am also from the PNW. I am thinking of diving around here since I have not been in any warm water since 2002. I hear there is some great diving, but a drysuit is a must.

Welcome to SB.com, but you are also welcome to post your own intro so we can welcome you appropriately....

Hi;

I dive around here a couple times a week. Lots of great sites locally, the San Juans and Canada.

I'm not sure of your cold water experience level and drysuit training. Conditions here can be challenging with limited viz and currents. If you're not sure of your abilities, then take a class, even a refresher.

Otherwise Seacrest or Redondo Beach are good starter places.

You're welcome to come check out my dive club; The Marker Buoy Dive Club . We're the largest in the area (200+ members) and have many dives every week. If you have some skills that need developing, we can point you in the right direction, and find like minded buddies.

Jack
