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.

Homer

Never dove in Homer. I would like to, particularly across the bay near Halibut Cove or any of the other little coves. I have a feeling all of those little kayaking spots are also great dives. One caution from my experience on the surface of Homer's water, though - there are areas where tide changes can create really dangerous currents. Stay out of those areas, and know where you're diving before you dive it.
