Welcome!!!

I'm in hampton, don't teach much anymore, but can set you up with some quality instructors here in VA.

I hit quite a few charters during our local dive season, you are welcome to join and really enjoy what this area has to offer.

Hi Tami, have you seen the DC Scuba meetup? https://www.meetup.com/dcscuba/

The organizer is putting together a trip to Roatan and there are other smaller trips throughout the year. It's not affiliated with a dive shop. Besides diving, they meet periodically for drinks in the area.
