LOCAL SCUBA DIVING EXCURSIONS
These are the dive sites and places we like to visit as a group every summer. Even if you are a single diver, you will always be made to feel welcome in our diving groups. Local diving is a great way to enjoy the peace under the waves and decompress after the stress of whatever it is that you do to fund your diving!
At this time, we are uncertain of exactly when our dive trips will be scheduled. For now, we will make like water and go with the flow. Be safe, everyone!
