Scube Diving magazine has a
comprehensive
buying guide for those first timers looking for scuba gear. The guide gives a nice breakdown of things to look for
in a mask, wetsuit, fins, etc., as well as a price range. It might make a nice place to look round if
you’re contemplating any purchases for the season. Of course, once you decide what you want to buy, you can check
online scuba equipment sites like DiversDiscount.com, where TONS of good
deals can be found if you poke around enough. I will post other deals and destination spots as I find them. I’m hopeful
this coming 2005 will be a big diving year.
