New Diver, Looking for dive buddies around NJ/NYC

[MezzDving]

Hi All,

I am a new diver with an advance cert. I want to continue to dive around NJ, interested in wrecks, but do not have any dive buddies in the area. I'm competent, eager to learn more, and would be happy to tag along on some dives.

Hi! I'm a relatively new diver in NYC and also looking to dive more in the area next season

You might want to check out the Sea Gypsies - they're a local club and the distribution list is full of people rounding up groups for weekend trips. Shops like Gotham Divers and Pan Aqua also run local trips.

Check out the Sea Gypsies! I'm the current dive chair and former president, and we love getting new divers involved in the local diving scene. I spend a lot of time diving in the NJ area myself.

We still have our 2017 dive schedule on the website, so you can see what sort of diving we do. Our next club meeting is on 11/13. Feel free to stop by... Happy to discuss NJ diving with you through PM as well.

Still diving around NJ? Where are your favorite spots?
