Diving Trip! What do I need?



Hey guys,

So every time I go to dive with some of my friends they always wonder why do I have everything I need when they forget something every single time. So whether it's just a causal swim, snorkel, scuba or spear dive trip there are some necessities. As per usual your mask, snorkel and fins are the main things. However being prepared for your trip, may it be what ever you will need additional things.

If your staying in the water for several hours it's advisable to walk with a wet suit and some diving glove to ensure you keep your body warm and safe from slamming against any reefs or any sea ants floating around.

A diving knife is another essential item in the event you need to cut any lines that you may be tangled in or need to let something free. Hell! imagine seeing a shark around you.... i'm sure your gonna wish you have that knife just in case something was to happen....

A whistle would help in that situation your trying to get someone attention from far.

A diving float should always be attached to signal to any boats near by to proceed with caution because there is divers in the water.

In the case of spear fishing walk with extra bands for your spear gun, an extra knife and a bottle of water to keep hydrated.

Put extra water, clothes and a towel in your vehicle to wash off with after the dive.

Lastly let someone on shore know your dive. Let them know how long your expected to be in the water and which part you will be diving.
