Our threshold for offshore diving extends more than 8 mi from St Andrew's Pass. These sites require advanced certification. It is a good idea to get a nitrox cert. These trips don't run every single day because of their distance. For information on when the next trip will run, contact the dive shop.
Talk about an incredible experience! It was very personal and pleasant. I look forward to returning for my dive class.

Never hold your breath
As every good entry-level dive student knows, this is the most important rule of scuba. And for good reason — breath holding underwater can result in serious injury and even death. In accordance with Boyle's law, the air in a diver's lungs expands during ascent and contracts during descent.
As you become a qualified scuba diver, you learn the basics of an essential scuba system. A cylinder, weights, an exposure suit, regulators, BCD gauge and timing device, mask and fins are the bare essentials.
