@zhibadzamgling2 years ago It is always easy to dive from a boat in one of the popular dive spot.. But for me "true" diving is shore diving, it is more like adventure not like a tourist trip.
Best greetings in 2022 👌 3

@souswes10 months ago I just moved to Florida…the combination of the dive flag, solo diving, and sidemounting was a challenge doing a shore entry. Took a few minutes of looking at my fins, flag, and two tanks in the sand to get a plan together

@laminar08863 years ago Thanks Sarah... I always appreciate these videos. We’re cautiously optimistic on a trip to Bonaire in late Spring.. but we’ll see. Looking forward to more shore diving and “independent” diving as well. Thanks for the information... especially key security! ... 1

@cheneybros9 months ago great security and responsibility tips!!

@mikesbigadventures1943 years ago Great video. The entrance and exit parts are super important. If you’ve ever dove North Monastery in Carmel, you know. Great dive site but the entrance and exit requires focus and nerve 1

@EricBovelander3 years ago Thnx for sharing your video, they are always great to watch and have clear details in it. Here in Holland we are doing almost only shore dives, in fresh water but also in salt water with current and tides.
This needs additional training and theory lessons for those divers, because the tides can be really spooky and dangerous if you are not aware of it. I hope to come to Indonesia again this year (my wife is Indonesian) and also visit you guys on Komodo, then I like to do some sidemount diving if that is possible, then I bring my SM rigg and regs ...

@Navigatorbythestarslast year This is the first time I have seen your channel, and let me qualify my statements by saying I have been diving since July 1969 , Diving all over the world I have thousands of dives under my ( weight ) Belt, I am a PADI Master Instructor, A NAUI specialty Instructor, Ex- Sheriff search and rescue Dive team member.And a EMT, and have taught many, many students. And what you had to say was SPOT ON ! I love seeing people pushing safety in SCUBA ! Im sure you must be an Instructor because yours is a voice screams experience. Please keep making these videos, This is what the sport is all about ... safety, fun, learning and sharing of your experiences ! There is no place for macho idiots. Thank you for sharing your excellent knowledge ! I just subbed you. ...

@calkelpdiver3 years ago Lot's of good points. I used to teach and dive SoCal, and beach/shore diving is what you do. Depending on the beach and terrain around it you need to plan appropriately the night before, right before the dive, and on the dive itself. Always appraise and reevaluate things, you never know when it can change on you. Especially during the dive itself. High slack tide is the best time to get into the water, make sure you show up with plenty of time beforehand so that you hit the water right at the peak. One thing to do is check the tide charts, they are invaluable for beach/shore diving. If you do have some surf/swell/surge at the dive site get to a high place to get an overall view to make sure you see the whole scene. Time sets and do enough sets to see the pattern, you never know when you might get a bigger wave than what you expect or shorten periods in between waves.
You do all this even with dive sites you are familiar with. ... 2

@charlesdunton46503 years ago Do alot of shores dives off the coast of Florida...entry/exit points can make or break a dive...the less stress the better... 1

@ephraimwiesel21103 years ago Great videos, Great tip use a valet key, and hide the electronic car key somewhere in the car.

@Boejiden7103 years ago Hey I see Refugio beach!!! I’m always diving over there how fun

@leeow3n2 years ago Fantastic af. If only donning exposure was this magical

@fabherod2 years ago Surfers use to leave their keys on top of one of their van's wheels🤣🤣 1

@cliffmillerslandlockedexpl54213 years ago I did a shore dive for my two day dive exam. It was rough getting in and extremely rough getting out with steep rocks in the water and uneven walking paths. 2

@francoissavin18523 months ago you forgot the dry suit for the keys, just keep it in your pocket 😀

@maxkol43803 years ago I usually dive solo with a 30 cu pony bottle. We've got some great shore dives up here in the Puget Sound.
@

@davelee5066last month Any tips on researching tide charts and currents? Is that something that you can just google? Or do you need to buy charts? How do you read the charts?
@

@Aumscuba3 years ago I found best advice I got when starting to work in Malta = before you get in to something, how you gonna get out? 1

@littleplatypus85032 years ago Any easy access shore dives in the North of Italy you will recommend? Thanks for your tips!🤙

@vnoockthebrain3 years ago About car key: I struggled a lot about where to keep it and one day came across this waterproof bag for cell phone that came as a gift with my new dry mesh bag. I made an experiment - i borrowed some lego bricks from my son, put together in the +/- shape of my car key and wrapped a paper towel around it to see any leak. Then I put the dummy key inside, closed the bag (squeesing the air out of it) and took for a 30m deep dive. It worked perfectly, and I still use this bag to take the car key with me on the dives. NOTE: TEST YOUR BAG FIRST!! ...

@ZSharky08153 years ago Great video, as usual! ;) i put the car keys in what we call an „egg“, a small waterproof container you can take with you underwater. of course inside rhe dry suit 1
@

@michaelbeiyt3 years ago A plastic egg or dry box works well for the car keys.

@carlokop5563 years ago Hmm it sounds like it's overly complicated, but it's actually pretty straightforward. In these parts it's actually rare to boat dive. We only do that on hollidays. Fresh water lakes aren't overly complicated. Just setup your gear in your car and in 15 minutes you can be in the water. In the ocean you really want to check the tides and conditions. Getting in and out of the water can be difficult sometimes. Having to climb over a dike, wall and getting into the water over slippery rocks with nothing to hold on to might be challenging with heavy gear (or without gear). ...

@JibeTalking3 years ago Just did my first shore dive in San Diego at La Jolla Cove, It kicked my butt.. It was the first time diving in 64 degree water and with a 8mm wet suit and carrying 30 lbs of additional weight. Very taxing just putting my fins on just past the shore break. Visibility was poor and the wave surge action was very prevalent as well. From where we staged our gear to the beach was about 200 yards and down a flight of stairs... After exiting the water, gravity took on a new meaning, them we had to go back up that flight of stairs. This gave me a new appreciation for going off the back of a dive boat. Really did not enjoy the dive. ...

@masonmax10002 years ago I like to hid my keys inside the wheel well of my car I unscrew the liner and put in inside that and then screw it back on. another good spot is exhaust pipes lol and no not inside it lmfao hang it off where the exhaust is hanging from. ps you might have to do a bit of crawling lol. ...
@

@scubacro57584 months ago There is no way I will pull buoy on surface, I don't care about local law, that sucks and most people don't know how dive buoy or flag looks like, I do my dive and then on end of my dive I deploy DSMB if I exit in blue or I just go to shore and don't shoot DSMB at all ...
