<p>I have yet to meet a diver who didn&#8217;t have his/her favorite diving destinations. What has surprised me is the difference of opinion of what makes a great diving location.</p>
<p>Twenty-five years ago I married an avid diver.  Since I was not certified that was the first priority.  Back then we looked for fun, adventurous places to dive. We had a great time.</p>
<p>Now we two teens who have an interest in diving. Our criteria is much different.  We also look for a place that provides a nice family environment as well.</p>
<p>Until they get comfortable with diving, I want a calm, safe dive location. (My husband is a little less protective still looks for high adventure.)</p>
<p>My goal is to provide a resource for researching great diving destinations and to hear what you have found.  Visit often as we report on various diving destinations and get input from you</p>
