    Trip Report Galapagos May 2021 Highlights

    Well, we are back home from the Galapagos. Lots of feelings, but overall, one of gratitude and awe that I was able to see that wonderful place. I can honestly say this is the first time in a long time that I haven't been ready to come home. Before I get into the highlights, though, there is...

    Point Lobos 11/10/18

    Finally got back into the cold NorCal waters. All of my diving in the past few years has been tropical vacation diving, which I do love. However, diving my backyard just makes so much sense. Other than abalone diving last year (sad the season was closed this year), I havent gotten in the water...

Accommodations Being a dive shop trip, we...

    Thick Boots and Eddy Fins

    As with other prior customers, I got an email recently about the new neoprene products. While I am not in the market for a new wetsuit, I was intrigued by the booties and rash guard, so I picked up one of each. I went diving this weekend in Point Lobos, the ideal place to try out the thick...

    Ring found Salt Pier

    We was in Bonaire last week (which will get its own write up when I get a chance) and my wife found a silver ring while we were diving salt pier. If you lost a ring and can describe it to me, or better yet have a picture, I would love to get it back to you!

    Trip Report Turquoise Bay Resort 6/2-6/9/18

    Just got back from a week long trip to Turquoise Bay Resort, diving with Subway Watersports. It was a great trip. I will try to hit just the highlights.

    Atmosphere Resort, Dauin, April 21-28, 2018

    Just getting around to writing my report for this trip. Went with the local dive shop organized trip. This trip was significantly more expensive than most we take, but I could see why. Resort The majority of the extra cost of this trip came because of the resort the leader chose. And I would...

    Buckle Assemble for Canon WP-DC21, DC28, DC34

    Hi all, I am looking for the buckle assembly for my canon waterproof housing (WP-DC21). I just got back from a trip where it developed a crack (but didnt flood!). Due to the age of the housing, I am having trouble finding a replacement. I was hoping someone might have an old housing and be...

I know this is an older camera model, but I am excited to have something to take those pictures I just can't interest...

    Trip Report Club Cantamar Report 11-11 to 11-18-17

    Just now getting around to posting a report of trip I took to Club Cantamar in La Paz about a month ago. I apologize in advance for the long read. This was a trip arranged by my LDS. Because we are from Sonoma County and this was so close after the fires it ended up being a small group of 6...

    Beqa Lagoon Resort Review March 25-April 1

    My wife and I recently returned from a trip with our LDS to Beqa Lagoon Resort (BLR) and since I have enjoyed reading others reviews, I thought I would add one of my own. This was our first strictly diving trip, though we have dove a day or two on other vacations. Why Fiji? We chose Fiji for a...

    Diving and Brewing

    Hey all, Excited to be on the site. I live in Sonoma County, CA, so I am lucky to have some great diving opportunities (SCUBA and free) in my backyard. I got certified on a world trip about 5 years ago, but somehow life got in the way of diving when I got back... However, I was able to get my...
