Fly-in SCUBA trips

california sucks for diving, the water is cold and its kinda boring.

Yes, please spread the word, California diving sucks. Did everyone
get that? So don't come here. It sucks.

Thanks, R., we will definitely look elsewhere for diving locations.

It's quite indicative when even a local says it sucks. That pacific ocean
sure is cold!

Ouch! Look at all these anti-california dive postings. Yes it's a
little chilly, but nothing crazy and nothing a good wetsuit won't
solve.

It's different diving out here, there are sights you won't see
anywhere else. Towering kelp forests, 500lb giant see bass, 7ft
halibut. I will admit it's not a place for the once-a-year PADI
divers, the temperature, surge, and depth can be intimidating. However
if you're more hardcore, know how to dive, and have had your fill of
comfy diving come on out. You have to admit Venezuala looks a lot like
Belize which is similar to Cacun which is beaten up like Looe Key : )

the wife and I are both PADI divers, I would suggest you get a computer, a good
one will keep track on how long you have been under water and monitor your
depth and will calculate when you can fly. Its more precise then using a paper
and pencil to figure it out.

california sucks for diving, the water is cold and its kinda boring. Florida
has shark dives that are real fun. we went on a shark dive off palm beach and
dove off the keys, lots to see there. If you want to see some neat diving pics,
we had a photographer take these when we dove of the Turks and Caios islands.
that was some good diving.

I am getting my open-water certification. My brother (a less experienced
pilot but a far more experienced diver) and I are looking for some some fly
and dive trips. We are planning to go to Pennekamp in Key Largo. I assume
MTH (Marathon) is the closest airport. Any other destinations people
suggest?

Thanks,

Michael

Yeah, but don't locals say the same thing about fishing holes? ...and
swimming holes?

Speaking of holes... http://www.evilzug.com/stuff/goatse/tribute/

What sort of bizarre google searches lead to sites such as this?

goatse.cx is one of those weird legends of the internet - kind of like "all
your base are belong to us" or "star wars kid". I figure mst had seen it
(usually by accident), and would find the tribute interesting
