Diving Magazines?

[Wijbrandus]

To what diving magazines do you subscribe?

I haven't signed on to any yet, but I'm looking for something more meaty than "Sport Diver" and RSD. I like them, since I'm new, but they don't really spend a lot of time on what I'm interested in (wreck diving).

Are there any good ones out there that have managed to stick around? I've found a few, but they all appear to be defunct, like aquanaut.

I may just settle for Wreck Diving Mag. Too bad it's quarterly. Was really looking for something thick to put in the bathroom every month...

if you are a DAN member, you get Alert Diver Magazine... it's not too bad...

also, you can go on line and read the UK's Diver Magazine on line
at http://www.divernet.com/index.shtml. it's much better than the US
mags i've read.

I get RSD and once was sent an issue of Fathoms as a bonus. It's interesting, has a more advanced diver audience in mind. Haven't subscribed but did enjoy that issue. No particular attention paid to wreck diving, as I recall.

Advanced Diver is a fine rag. Bowen does a nice job. Immerssed has recently come on hard times and I don't know if I will ever see another rag or not.

I hear that Immersed has closed up shop.

I don't subscribe to any of them, but they keep sending them.

The only ones that I ever liked were Alert Diver and Advanced Diver.

I wanted to get a diver sub but its almost 80$ BUT Barnes and Nobles carry it from time to time a good mag and much better since the bsac split some years ago.

They do always seem to be late, but Bernie responded to the recent hullabaloo and says that he's still there, still publishing, just has a new EU representative. We'll see, but I hope he doesn't go under.

For pretty pictures, try Fathoms. Bret Gilliam returns to publishing with a slick exotic dive travel mag - nice so far.

And Rodale's just yesterday sold Scuba Diving to another publisher, so changes may be coming there.
