    Saskatchewan Canada death

    Thanks wedivebc. I know some of his extended family and none of them know anything about diving. Just trying to learn from others experiences both good and awful. Very sad.

    Saskatchewan Canada death

    Is there any info regarding a diver who died Nov 6, or 7, 2020. Apparently PADI instructor, cave certified, so not a rookie. He was diving alone in a lake in central Saskatchewan and was found Nov 7. I know it happened as I talked with his brother in law, but can’t find any information. Left...

    Feb 18, Canadian diver died in the Dominican Republic

    Very sad and my condolences to the family. Dominican Republic is the only place that I have ever been that made me wonder if the dive company was legit. It turned out it was pretty sketchy - the dive boat sunk with 8 divers on it. We floated for about 2 hours until another boat cane to find us.

    Out of air incident.

    I had a close call diving with a resort group in Cuba this week. The dive centre is very well equipped and the staff are all very well trained SSI pro's and have years of taking groups of all levels diving. The group of 7 divers consisted of 2 staff divers and 5 clients. We were assigned dive...

    I want to do my DM training in the US! Anyone know Where is best?

    After reading your questions, and understanding you want to be in USA, have you considered Mexico! I too had those questions, but chose Cabo San Lucas Mexico due to the cost and proximity of dive locations. There are many dive shops, good accommodations, and reasonable costs involved. Conditions...

    Newbie Diver from Toronto, Ontario

    You no doubt will be at a resort, and the only dive operation makes arrangements for you to be picked up and taken to the dive shop. Real nice boat and decent rental equipment. The dive masters are fluent in English, and the dive sites are any about a 20 minute boat ride. The waters are usually...

    Costa Rica 2014

    I recently stayed at the Riu Palace and booked with Rocket Frog diving. They picked me up with their boat right on the beach every morning and too me home after. Absolutely the way to go. Great boat and crew. If you are able, make the trip to Bat Islands. Contact them by e-mail, and Michael...

    What kind of dive traveler are you?

    I am a dive master and my wife won't go in the water but loves the beach, so we have an agreement that we travel to destinations where there is water. I usually dive 2-3 days a week, and we spend the rest of the time together. Worked good for 35 years so far! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Cabo in Late April... Newbie divers

    There is a shop with their own pool which is great for training. You can spend as much time in the pool with your gear on as you like. It is called Nautilus Dive Tech. It isn't right on the marine, but only a 5 minute walk away. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I need help with a dive trip to cabo san lucas, mexico.

    I recommend Nautilus Dive Tech for the simple reason that they have their own training pool. The owner is also a great instructor and very patient with students. They aren't right on the marina, but not that far a walk. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Los Cabos recommendations

    I have been diving with a few of the shops in Cabo, and decided to take my DM at Nautilus Dive Tech. They are very attentive to detail, have a training pool at their shop, and very accommodating regarding scheduling. They are not located around the marina, but it is only a 5 minute walkaway -...
