United States Caribbean SeaDepending on time of year, and visibility, there are some good spots to dive in the Gulf. We had fun finding and playing with arrow crabs and annoying some of the goliath grouper in some of the wrecks in the area...hearing the grouper's boom boom booms.

United States PacificThis is a nice dive site for those that are beginning to intermediate divers. Max depth is about 85' with good visabilty. It has some beautiful Stagehorn coral as well as many reef creatures to look at. This is the one site that I have never not seen a very large octopus during the day. Your chance to encounter large pelagics is pretty neat also. I have seen sharks and dolphins here on a regular basis.

CanadaKootenay lake had a lot of bardges hauling trains, cars equipment in the early 1900s. They were flat bardges pushed in pairs by the old paddle wheelers of that era. Ocassionaly they were lost. there is a report of three hobos( from the old days of jumping& riding trains) going down with the box cars. We have found one old shoe, and took pics, set it on top of a box car at 40'. The deepest box car sits on a steep angle from 93' back up to 46' on a ledge. Most of the box cars have thier load of coal still pouring out of them. There are 6 known box cars and 9 more left to find. There are several dive sites in this huge deep long lake including a car ferry which was in service from 1954 until 2004. It now sits at 180' to the bottom, the top is at 95'. There are boat rentals (big enough to sleep on)or services to get you out to the sites. There are also some shore dives here to be done. Low cost Motels are close by. There is a ex Navy Diver who lives n the area and hires out his boat to haul divers out. He needs some notice to plan the trip. Hit charges are good, his boat will handle 4 tech divers easily. Contact the info@albertaunderwatercouncil to find him. His first name is Blair.

Chile PacificIt's right off the beach at Punta de Tralca. It's cool green water typical of upwelling zones, so make sure to have a 6.5mm or thicker suit. Water temps in spring/summer rarely exceed 17C with 12-15 C being the norm. It's a very popular spot here with the spearfishers, so make sure not to look like a fish.
