There are as many reasons to scuba dive as there are people who scuba dive. For me it is a way to focus my attention on something other than the day to day problems and stresses of the world and for at least an hour...maybe a couple hours...I find peace and quiet. Scuba diving is something you can do your entire life and not learn everything there is to know about it. Combine the aspects of continous learning, the beauty of a world we rarely get to see and the quiet of just you and bubbles....it's intoxicating.

I built this portal of sorts to help mostly new divers get into diving and to get started on their own journey. Think of this place as a jumping off spot. I hope you learn something, but if you don't...I hope it points you towards a place you can learn and experience the beauty of the underwater world.

If you are an experienced diver and you disagree with me...that's cool..however, I hopefully explained it well enough for you to understand my point of view. You really only know if you understand a topic when you try and explain it to someone else. And these pages are my attempt at seeing if I understand the topics myself. On the other hand...if you think I explained it factually wrong (as opposed to simple opinion)....drop me a note. Maybe I did. And I'll thank you for it. That's part of the learning process.

Dive Safe,
