Hi, I will be in Lauderdale -By-The-Sea, on the 4th, 5th, & 6th of Dec. 2003 before departing on a cruise to carribean. and again on the 15th & 16th. I was wondering if anyone could share some information on shore-diving in this area. I will be staying at the Pier-Pointe Resort. I have no clue if that is a decent place to stay either. I am relitively new to SCUBA. PADI-AOW. With 6 ocean dives, all boat dives. I'm wondering about surges, rip-tides, how far out to the reef, visibilty, etc.
I recently aquired a C5050 w/ PT-15 & YS-90DX Auto, and I'm itching to try it out. ( I've read Dee's and other posts on the OLY ) Is there a dive shop close (Tank-Fills)?. Any local regs. to be aware of ? Is there dive buddys to be found that would put up with a rookie UW Photo guy?
I'm from Missouri and don't get too many chances to dive the ocean. Just lakes. And I'm trying to be prepared.
Thanks, Tom
