It’s been two years almost since I’ve Scuba dived due to covid and last vacation. Who else is excited but a little nervous about getting back out there? Any recommendations on where to get my fins wet again?

Went diving in Belize (turneffe atoll) in May, and am set to go to Turks and Caicos in December. Get back out there 😊

Turneffe was a great destination. Resorts were not very crowded so ready to feel confirmable with covid.

Same boat. Also wondering if I need my regs serviced; they’ve been sitting unused for 2 years since I last serviced them.

Probably don’t need a full service since no salt corrosion, but maybe an inspection of the soft parts that may break down or need to be lubed.

I dove Cozumel twice and Bayahibe, DR during the pandemic and both were amazing in their own way. Next up is Mallorca then Maldives.

In confidence she told me she can often smell alcohol. How can I help? I feel helpless. I’ve already lost someone to addiction and I can’t ignore this. Any advice?
