SITE MAINTENANCE Our old server was limiting and slow. In order to accommodate our changing needs, we have decided to move to a new address. Welcome to it! Unfortunately, the move has interfered with certain of the site's features, including the most popular feature (the forums). Please bear with us for the next few days as we work out some kinks and reenable these features.

When it's cold on the surface, soak your neoprene and regulators in warm water for a few minutes just before pulling it on, gearing up, and getting in the water. Combined with other good habits, it will keep your regs from freezing on the surface, and it makes donning gloves and hoods less unpleasant.

Anchorage

Anchorage has brackish ocean water with almost no visibility, and incredibly dangerous currents. I would not recommend diving in Anchorage's sea water.

That said, I believe that there must be fair to excellent fresh water diving in the Anchorage area. I am intent on exploring around here, and will certainly report what I find.
