The water on the Pacific Coast is stronger and tends to be a bit cooler than the east coast but take a boat ride out with the instructors and you’ll find dives that you will remember for the rest of your lives.

Although there are fewer dive spots on this side of the country, the diversity of the organisms more than makes up for it. On the west coast you can explore caves, underwater mountain ranges, and marine reserves just to name a few attractions.
