In an earlier thread I got some good replies on what to ask the dive co as this would be my first boat/ocean dive.
Now to all you experienced divers, what sort of thing am I going to expect. Kind of a stupid question, but not having done any ocean diving I am curious.
I don't necessarily mean water temp/vis etc as this would be peculiar to the area I'm in, but just the whole difference between ocean and lake/quarry???
It always struck me as strange that you get no ocean dive training with OW (unless its an ocean dive centre) yet I can go diving in the sea, with currents/tides etc
Now I've always been very comfortable and confident with the sea, having been on my dads boats all my life, but I'm still a little "twitchy" about what I'm going to be like when I actually get to dive there.
The ocean will be Atlantic, off the west coast of France.
