Deploying a Safety Sausage

Sun, 12 Sep 2021 14:18:30 +0000

ONE ESSENTIAL PIECE of accessory equipment every diver needs to carry is the “safety sausage” or surface marker buoy (SMB). This device may also be referred to as a DSMB (delayed or deployable surface marker buoy). The purpose of these buoys is to help you be located quickly and easily during and/or after a dive. Knowing how to deploy an inflatable buoy is important, so let’s get...

Cave Diving: Lessons from the Overhead Environment

Sat, 28 Nov 2020 04:23:02 +0000

Until recently I never gave much thought to getting “cave certified.” I mean, I’ve kind of been everywhere and done (almost) everything in the scuba realm and lived happily ever after. I’ve had many a grand adventure and always felt both challenged by and fulfilled with my diving, so why, after thousands of dives and several decades of exploring coral reefs on five different continents did I all of the sudden have the itch to get cave diving certified? That’s exa...

At the Intersection of People and Wildlife: Drawing the Line Between Interaction and Harassment

Mon, 19 Oct 2020 14:21:17 +0000

But I do have a short list. They all share one common denominator — some special interaction with marine wildlife. Whether it involved a whale or a pygmy seahorse, my most fulfilling experiences were those that allowed me to get up close and personal with the creatures of the sea. If you...

Add a Diver for Perspective

Wed, 16 Oct 2019 14:13:05 +0000
AS AN UNDERWATER PHOTOGRAPHER, it is relatively easy to capture the attention of your audience if you share a picture of a whale, shark or another relatively large marine creature. Including a diver in your frame can transform an interesting image into an “oohs” and “ahs” crowd pleaser. It is not simply putting a diver into an edgy position that can elevate the impact an image has. The diver also adds size perspective, a factor that can go a long way toward helping get...

Shark Diving as a Conservation Strategy: How Shark Tourism is Protecting Global Shark Populations

Sun, 06 Oct 2019 19:54:08 +0000
More than a half-century ago I learned to dive and began what would become my diving career, in the cold, murky waters of the Chesapeake Bay. To be honest, though, most of my diving didn’t take place in the Bay but in nearby freshwater quarries and lakes. But a special treat was the occasional excursion to the New Jersey or Delmarva coast to dive in the ocean. One such dive was my absolute favorite and it...

Archimedes and the Basics of Buoyancy

Fri, 30 Aug 2019 07:56:11 +0000
Jonah Kayton slips silently beneath the waves, and begins a slow descent with his buddy to the wreck waiting below. Sensing the acceleration in his descent, he squeezes the inflator button in his left hand, releasing a short burst of air into his buoyancy compensator (BC) that slows his descent. His right hand pinches the nose pocket in his mask, and he blows gently to relieve the pressure building in his ears. Kayton quickly checks his depth gauge, cylinder pressure and dive...

Stargazing in Broad Daylight: Exploring the Bay Islands of Honduras

Sun, 18 Aug 2019 21:49:54 +0000
Normally when I go stargazing, I am outdoors on a relatively clear night, with my face pointed to the heavens and my eyes soaking in the majesty and mystery of the twinkling stars overhead. The Bay Islands of Honduras offer a totally different kind of stargazing that has nothing to do with celestial bodies and is not limited to a nocturnal activity. That is the reason my afternoon dive at Ted’s Point off Utila finds me at 70 feet (21 m) alternately looking between the sandy bottom and the...

Who’s Who: Sea Lion or Seal, Sea Snake or Sea Krait, Blacktip Shark or Blacktip Reef Shark

Tue, 25 Jun 2019 20:48:42 +0000
HAVE YOU EVER SEEN a “seal show” at a marine theme park? While you might be quick to confidently answer “yes,” there is a good chance that if you saw a show, the featured creatures were sea lions, not seals. Some people might think that I am splitting hairs. But marine mammal specialists will tell you that sea lions and seals are far from being one and the same. Have you ever seen a sea snake? Are you sure it was a sea snake, not a sea krait? While members of both grou...

MY TRAVEL JOURNAL ENTRY READS, ‘“Here niño, niño, niño,’ the divemaster calls out as he slaps the surface of the water. Apparently, this is how one calls a crocodile. I slide into the water as quietly as I can, while thinking of all the technology necessary to allow us humans to survive in the underwater world and how truly out of our element we are beneath the surface. I scan the surrounding seagrass bed for a creature that has been living in harmony with...

Two Unforgettable Fishes: The Frogfish and Mandarinfish

Wed, 05 Jun 2019 16:46:20 +0000
THEY OCCUR IN AN ALMOST ENDLESS variety of shapes, colors and patterns. Many are smaller than half-the-size of your little finger. One grows to longer than 40 feet (12.2 m) and weighs as much as 47,000 pounds (21.5 t). They live in almost every permanent body of naturally occurring water on Earth. Some occasionally crawl onto land while others live in the deep waters of the abyss. No one knows exactly how many different kinds there are, but it is generally agreed upon that the total number of...

Fill a pleasing percentage of your frame with your subject. Don’t put your subject dead center in a frame because it creates a “bulls-eye effect...

NOAA’s Marine Debris Program Aims to Combat Plastic Pollution in Our Oceans

PLASTIC IS EVERYWHERE: In your home, your office, your school — and your ocean. Among the top 10 kinds of trash picked up during the 2017 International Coastal Cleanup were food wrappers, beverage bottles, grocery bags, straws and take out containers, all made of plastic. How did it all get there? Why is it a problem? What can we do? While it’s difficult to say exactly how much plastic is in the ocean, scientists think there’s about 8 million metric tons of plastic making it...

The Sickly Seas: Reaping the Unwanted Harvest of a Plastic Overload

Tue, 14 May 2019 03:42:09 +0000
I’m roaming a tropical beach, basking in its warmth and beauty. As I stroll the beach, caressed by the gentle surf and swept by the trade winds, the word paradise comes to mind. When I look closer, I see a striking amount of the debris at the high tide line is not natural driftwood, coconut and seaweed. It’s plastic — bottle caps, broken pieces of discarded Styrofoam cups, shreds of plastic bags, straws and countless unidentifiable multi-colored bits ground smooth by the sand...

Iceland: A Hot Destination for Frigid-Water Scuba Diving

Sun, 10 Mar 2019 20:19:00 +0000
To be completely honest, scuba diving in Iceland had never really been at the top of my bucket list. “The water is too cold!” I thought. I prefer tropical locations. Water temperatures at my local dive site in upstate New York drop to the high 40s Fahrenheit (8 Celsius), but I’ve never dived in water close to freezing. However, late last summer I received a call from a friend who had a last minute cancellation on a trip that included both topside tours and scuba diving in...

THE QUEEN CONCH: Will Her Reign Continue?

Mon, 18 Feb 2019 20:47:58 +0000
No visit to the Florida Keys (and in particular Key West) would be complete without trying out some delicious conch fritters or a steamy bowl of creamy, thick conch chowder. However, this delicious mollusk is no longer a locally provided delicacy but has been imported from the neighboring Bahamas and various Caribbean countries for the past 25 years. Over-harvest has been the key contributor to the lack of local conch. Reduced conch populations led to the banning of commercial harvesting of...

Choosing the Right Commercial Diver Training Program

Tue, 22 Jan 2019 16:04:53 +0000
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Several factors come into play when choosing the right commercial diver training program. One of the first questions to consider is whether earning a college degree should be part of the process or if just getting to the business of diving is more important. Even for those who already have a 2- or 4-year degree, earning a degree in a field such as Marine Diving Technology can pay dividends in the future, depending on an individual’s goals.

Fri, 18 Jan 2019 15:30:50 +0000

The key word here is “exchange.” As we know, communicating clearly with someone is not always easy, even when the conversation is conducted using words spoken on dry land. For instance, if you are across a crowded, noisy room from the person you are trying to communicate with, they might not hear your message. Or if you’re speaking English to a non-English...

A Story of Neighbors and Nature: The Indomitable Spirit of Dominica

Wed, 14 Nov 2018 16:48:18 +0000
A STRONG “NEIGHBOR HELPING NEIGHBOR” ETHIC has been alive in the Caribbean for many generations. The 2017 Caribbean hurricane season gave us the opportunity to see the spirit of community in action across a broad swath of islands, as major storms — namely Irma and Maria — landed direct, devastating hits. In the first week of September the Dominica Watersports Association received a phone call from Jerry Beaty, associate publisher of Dive Training mag...

The Thin Line

Wed, 14 Nov 2018 16:06:49 +0000
PRIOR TO A RECENT TRIP to the Philippines, I was reviewing some of my images of yellow-lipped sea kraits. While pleased with several, I found many others to be boring. Although sound in terms of exposure and focus, they lacked strong visual appeal. As I asked myself what I could have done differently to create a stronger connection with viewers, it struck me that I composed too many of the shots by looking down onto the sea kraits. In those frames, my subject failed to stand out in a manner t...

Making a Clean Sweep: The Regulator Retrieval Skill

DURING your Open Water Diver certification course you learn a whole bunch of important skills and safe practices for scuba diving. Since your regulator supplies you with a constant supply of breathing gas while underwater, it makes sense that that you should keep the regulator in your mouth at all times while diving. The regulator retrieval skill is one of the “what if” skills meant to answer, “What do I do if my regulator accidently comes out of my mouth while I’m diving...

FROM “SIMPLE DIVE” TO SEARCH AND RESCUE: When Plans Don’t Go According to Plan

Fri, 09 Nov 2018 21:18:30 +0000
It was a simple plan. A youth soccer team and their assistant coach, as part of a birthday celebration for one of the boys, would go for a short hike into a well-known cave. The plan was to be at the cave for no more than an hour. Family, friends, a Sponge Bob Squarepants cake and presents were waiting at the birthday boy’s home. But plans do not always go according to plan. The Thai youth soccer team, nicknamed the Wild Boars, became the focus of worldwide media attention after the boy...

Paradise, Recovered and Rediscovered: The British Virgin Islands

TRUE STORY. Caribbean-style singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffet got the inspiration for his iconic song, “Cheeseburger in Paradise” while cruising the British Virgin Islands (BVI) by sailboat. It was the summer of 1978 when rough seas delayed their arrival into Tortola’s Road Town harbor. Buffet and his crew ran short of supplies and were left rationing a jar of peanut butter for the last few days at sea. They finally pulled into Village Cay Marina days later, half-starved. Buffet...

“I Can See Clearly Now”: How to Select Your Scuba Mask and Prevent Fogging

Tue, 25 Sep 2018 01:29:39 +0000
DIVING IS ALL ABOUT SEEING and exploring the underwater world. Most people experience this unique setting only by viewing it on a screen, but as divers, the mask serves as our portal to a first-person experience of the aquatic realm. The scuba mask is typically constructed of a flexible material, such as silicone, and designed to fit the face, including the eyes and nose. The mask is designed with a skirt that seals the mask to the face to keep water out and provide an air space so the eyes can...

STUDY INDICATES GREAT PACIFIC GARBAGE PATCH GYRE IS GROWING

Thu, 12 Jul 2018 15:08:47 +0000
WORLDWIDE, PLASTIC CONSUMPTION has reached over 320 tons per year. Most of the plastics produced are of a one-time use nature and is rapidly added to burgeoning landfills or disposed of as litter. A smaller portion is either recycled or incinerated (which has its own set of problems). The plastics that are introduced into the marine environment have many environmental factors working on them including wind, currents, friction from other flotsam and jetsam, sun, temperature variations, waves and...

THE PHILIPPINES? Yes, we’ve been there. But not entirely.

With thousands of tropical islands occupying hundreds of thousands of miles/km, it’s fair to say this place has an uncountable number of coral reefs for...

“Have a Seat, Please”: The Controlled Seated Entry

Mon, 04 Jun 2018 16:55:53 +0000
EVERY SCUBA DIVER BEGINS his or her underwater adventure by performing some type of entry into the water. If diving from a boat, a diver may enter the water with a giant stride or a back roll, depending on the conditions and type of boat. However, these entries are not suitable if the water is too shallow or if the entry platform is too close to the water. In addition, some divers, including those...

Avoid using an extremely tight frame or your shots could end up like this (see photo in inset).
THE MAGICAL QUALITIES exhibited by whales capture our hearts and minds despite the fact that most divers have not seen one underwater. Just a glimpse sets our imaginations free and sends adrenalin coursing through our arteries. Of course, if you are a photographer, a whale sighting is likely to make you hustle to grab your camera.

Health for Diving: A Primer on Diabetes

Tue, 13 Feb 2018 05:24:01 +0000
We all know there are medical factors that can prevent people from diving. Epilepsy, various heart conditions, loss of consciousness, pneumothorax, some chronic diseases and even some forms of anxiety can spell trouble that may be incompatible with diving. But over the years, the list of contraindications has narrowed, allowing more to enjoy exploration of the underwater world. One condition that has prevented some people from becoming divers is diabetes. Diabetes affects the body’s abi...

Hunger Games: How Marine Animals Hunt and Feed

Mon, 12 Feb 2018 00:26:08 +0000
Relationships are not always what they first appear to be. And almost every adult can tell you of a “match made in heaven” that ended up in divorce court. On a happier note, how about the couple no one else sees as a good match that stays together forever? You have to look under the hood to understand the nature of a lot of relationships. Now let’s take that thought underwater. When new divers see their first cleaning station with a small shrimp or cleaner fish scurrying aro...

Lionfish Invasion: The Saga Continues

Sun, 11 Feb 2018 22:35:00 +0000
As most divers know, the western Atlantic is experiencing an invasion that could be the environmental equivalent of D-Day — if we were on the side of the Nazis, that is. The enemy is the spectacular but venomous lionfish. We first covered the lionfish invasion back in 2007. Yet the battle still rages, and will likely continue on indefinitely, so another status report is warranted. In brief, the bad news is that there are exponentially more lionfish claiming territory throughout the...

Divers can assist the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary in assessing damage done to the sensitive ecosystem by Hurricane Irma.

Recovery efforts by both nature and man are ongoing. A mission led by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) identified damaged areas of the reef that would benef...

Going Green in the Deep Blue: Exploring the Honduran Island of Guanaja

Tue, 21 Nov 2017 15:22:44 +0000
It seems like we’d barely taken off from Miami before it was time for “seats and tray tables in their upright position.” As I peeked out the airplane window I could see we were descending toward a cluster of lush green islands dotting the Caribbean Sea — ringed with fringing reefs just crying out to be explored. Guanaja and the Bay Islands of Honduras are only a two-hour flight from Miami, Florida. But whether viewed from high in the sky or from beneath the surface, they...

Don’t Pass Up Paradise

Tue, 14 Nov 2017 17:22:58 +0000
One of the best things about diving is that much of it happens in terrific tropical locations. However, the same elements that create the great weather there can spawn tropical storms of epic proportions. During the 26 years we’ve been publishing Dive Training we’ve witnessed the down side of paradise, and watched friends and associates who work there rebuild their businesses and their lives. And they do. I clearly remember when Ivan, a Category 4 hurricane, blew through the Cayma...

The Underwater Science of Sound

Over the last century, man-made noise from vessels, construction, naval sonar, seismic air gun surv...

2017 Atlantic Hurricane Season Wreaks Havoc, But Destinations Show Resilience as Recovery Efforts Continue

Thu, 02 Nov 2017 01:53:40 +0000
This year’s Atlantic hurricane season now ranks among the top eight all-time most active seasons on record. As of mid-October, 15 named storms, nine hurricanes, and five major (Category 3 or stronger) hurricanes had formed in the 2017 Atlantic hurricane season, impacting several popular diving destinations in the U.S. and the Caribbean. While some affected businesses are currently closed with no clear re-opening dates, others have completed repairs and are back in business. Still others...

Rev’d Up Diving: Exploring Mexico’s Revillagigedo Islands

Mon, 30 Oct 2017 16:16:27 +0000
The Revillagigedo Islands (rev E ah he HAY dose) are a mouthful. Some divers simply default to calling them Socorro, which is one of three islands and one very big rock — Clarion, San Benedicto, Socorro and Roca Partida — that make up the diver’s paradise of Mexico’s Revillagigedo Islands Archipelago. The archipelago is part of a submarine mountain range, with the volcanic peaks emerging as islands. Located some 240 nautical miles southwest of Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, it...

The Marvel of Moon Jellies: Shapeshifting and Other Survival Strategies for Deep Exploration

Mon, 30 Oct 2017 15:48:56 +0000
Life is hard and the key to survival is learning how to deal with failures. Since man first started to use tools and build machines, we have had to learn to deal with failures. If a tool or machine broke, we could either repair it or replace it. The choice has always boiled down to a matter of resources. If we had the resources to fix it (tools, materials, time), we might choose that option. If unrepairable and we had other resources (money), we might buy a new one. But as our tools and machines...

Collapsed Azure Window Now Diving Site

Mon, 30 Oct 2017 15:23:49 +0000
The Malta Azure Window, an incredible natural limestone arch on the island of Gozo, collapsed into the sea after heavy storms in March. Malta, officially known as the Republic of Malta, is a South European island country consisting of an archipelago in the central Mediterranean Sea between Sicily and the North African coast. The arch was originally created by the collapse of a sea cave in the 19th century and consisted of a pillar of rock rising from the sea and...

In Memoriam: Renee “Apple” Applegate

Renee “Apple” Applegate died August 13, 2017. She was the owner of Dive Paradise in Cozumel. Apple attended the University of California, Berkeley. In 1976 she signed up for a scuba diving course with the Aqua Tutus Skin and SCUBA Diving Club. The course was a demanding one, held at Chabot College in Hayward, California. The semester-long course was rigorous with many hours of lecture and in-water work, but Apple emerged a certified diver with a passio...

Challenging The “Rules” of Scuba Diving: Because Not Everything is Black and White

Thu, 07 Sep 2017 17:35:45 +0000
If you’re like most divers, you’ve heard of — and perhaps adhere to — procedures that are considered “normal” within our sport. A few classic “always and nevers” include: always dive with a buddy; always do your deepest dive first; always wear a snorkel; never put your mask on your forehead; always end your dive with at least 500 psi remaining in the tank and — perhaps the number one scuba diving “never” of all time — never...

The Art of “Thumbs Up”: How to Return to the Surface Safely

Wed, 06 Sep 2017 18:28:55 +0000
The sad thing about scuba diving is that eventually, we must return to the surface. Some divers think the dive is over when they give each other the “thumbs up” signal indicating it is time to go up. However, prudent divers know the dive isn’t finished until you are safely onboard the boat or are exiting the water onto shore. The ascent, if not performed properly, can potentially put a diver at risk of injury. Coming up too quickly can increase the chances of lung overexp...

Imagine That!

Fri, 01 Sep 2017 15:32:04 +0000
I am a big believer in the process of envisioning a photograph, at least in rough terms, and then seeing if I can create that image. I think this type of approach makes underwater photography far more interesting and rewarding than the approach of swimming around camera in hand while “grabbing” photographs of whatever I randomly encounter. Successfully using this technique requires some experience and knowledge about subjects and camera systems. So if you are relatively new to und...

Sea Urchin Appreciation: In Praise of Mother Ocean’s Pincushions

Fri, 01 Sep 2017 15:14:49 +0000
Anyone who has experienced the business end of sea urchin spines is not likely to forget their misfortune anytime soon. For the unfamiliar, it is well worth noting that the spines can easily puncture and become embedded in the skin of an unfortunate diver. And they hurt! But there is another side to the sea urchin story, one that shares their natural history, value to the ecosystems where they occur, and their importance to a number of creatures that depend on them for food, shelter and prote...

Focus In On Focusing Options

Thu, 31 Aug 2017 19:06:40 +0000
One significant advantage of fisheye and other ultrawide-angle lenses is that it is often easy to get all the important elements in your frame in sharp focus. This is true even when using relatively wide apertures (e.g., f-4). But for subjects that are roughly 4-8 feet (1.2-2.4 m) long, like the gray reef shark pictured here, a lens with an extremely wide angle of view is usually not the lens of choice. Lenses that provide fields of view narrower than ultrawide lenses often help to produce mo...

Far and Wide – and Deep: A Primer on Adventure Travel for Divers

Tue, 29 Aug 2017 22:14:46 +0000
Divers are by nature an intrepid bunch. We’re the ones willing to travel far and wide to see what’s out there — what’s under there. We epitomize the words of Thoreau, who said, “Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you have imagined.” And we believe Walt Disney’s famous line, “All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them.” If your dream of the “perfect” vacation can be arranged by ...

Roaming the Sand Biome at Night: The Spanish Dancer, Anemone Hermit Crab and the Bristle Worm

Tue, 29 Aug 2017 16:17:54 +0000
Give divers the option of exploring a sandy bottom or a reef and the near unanimous choice will be a reef. In fact, both day and night divers often appear to swim over patches of sand as if they are trying to escape from something. But if you always choose reef over sand, you will miss out on a lot of fascinating creatures and behaviors. This is especially true in many destinations in the Coral Triangle, the Indo-Pacific region that is roughly bounded by the Philippines, Malaysia, northern Au...

The eco-friendly marine habitat that is a blend of sunken ship and underwater art installation was established just south of Mountain Point in Virgin Gorda. The ship used was the 158-foot (48 m) Kodiak Queen and the art is an 80-foot (24 m) mesh and rebar sculpture of a kraken wrapping around her stern. The Kodiak Queen was sunk in a location an...

More Good Than Harm

Tue, 29 Aug 2017 15:23:23 +0000
In order to get this shot of a bigfin squid while on a night dive in Puerto Galera in the Philippines, my dive buddy and I managed to maneuver the squid using her dive light. Instead of facing me when I shined my light on it, the squid you see here, faced away. At first I was unable to compose a compelling frame. A minute or so later my buddy shined her light on the squid and the squid remained still. I moved so that my buddy and I were on opposite sides of the squid. Then I turned my light off....

Strobe Positioning to Avoid the Sandstorm

Tue, 29 Aug 2017 15:16:08 +0000

Wow! What a moment and what an opportunity.
Those are the thoughts that went through my head the instant I saw this female peacock mantis shrimp carrying her eggs as she made her way across the sand. My next thought was to remember that I was working over a sand bottom and that I wanted to avoid creating the horribly distracting hotspots that are commonly seen in shots where the foreground is a bright sand bottom. An example of those hotspots can be seen ...

The waters off Dominica can be seen in all the blue hues you can dream up, but the island’s color palette is just as famous for the rich shades of green that carpet its volcanic peaks and adorn its tropical rain forests. And its beaches? Most consist of shimmering black...

Defying Gravity: The Nuances of Neutral Buoyancy

Fri, 21 Jul 2017 15:17:36 +0000
One of the thrills of scuba diving is the ability to defy gravity and remain suspended in the water column while swimming with the fishes at various depths. When new divers first start out, watching an instructor or dive guide hover motionlessly above a training platform or coral reef might seem like a magic trick they’ll never be able to pull off. But achieving weightlessness underwater is actually quite simple. And there’s no magic involved. To master the subtle nuances of neutral...

As the founder and operator of an eco-tourism company in Mexico, I spent my days on the beach and on the water, guiding tourists through a wonderland of tropical delights. We trekked through the mangroves, learned to fish with the natives and marveled at the wildlife: crocodiles, iguanas, turtles and countless tropical birds. But the first thing we did each morning, before the...

Getting It Just Right: Pre-dive Weight Check for Proper Buoyancy

Tue, 20 Jun 2017 14:02:31 +0000
Archimedes’ principle is a law of physics fundamental to fluid mechanics. And as it turns out, this law of physics is one of several that directly influences our diving. Way back in 250 B.C. the Greek mathematician and physicist stated that, “an object, wholly or partially immersed in a liquid, is buoyed up by a force equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object.” In practical terms, buoyancy is the force that causes objects to float. When equipping for a dive...

“We’re Having a Grand Time” Enjoying the Island of Grand Cayman

Tue, 13 Jun 2017 21:05:19 +0000
One of the great things about living abroad and working with people from all over the world is experiencing other people’s cultures and customs, and learning the ways they express themselves. One of my co-workers is a lovely South African woman named Charlotte. Whenever we’re out having fun together I’ll often say, “This is awesome.” But Charlotte? She’s got a slightly different way of putting it. In her delightfully sing-songy South African voice, she&rsquo...

Exploring America’s Pacific Northwest: The San Juan Islands

As a kid growing up in Seattle, I would often hear stories from friends of their great adventures in the San Juan Islands: boating, camping, fishing, kayaking, biking, hiking and telling tall tales by the beach camp fires at night. I yearned to experience these things but the islands seemed a million miles away. For an adult, the reality is the San Juan Islands are easily accessible from Seattle and, when I finally was able to start experiencing them, they exceeded all the expectations amasse...

When the Diving’s Done: Tips for Disassembling a Scuba Unit

Wed, 18 Jan 2017 05:49:56 +0000
Now that your fun day of diving is over, it is time to disassemble your scuba unit. If you are on a boat it might be easier to leave your tank set up in the tank rack while disassembling the unit. If diving from shore, find a clean, flat area to work from. Secure the tank unit so it will not fall over. Turn the air completely off by turning the tank valve in a clockwise direction (Photo 1). Next, depress the purge button on your primary second-stage regulator to make sure all the pressurized ...

‘Live’ Diving: How to Enter and Exit While ‘Live Boating’

Fri, 02 Sep 2016 02:00:07 +0000
Live boating refers to a type of diving in which the boat does not anchor or attach to a mooring. Instead, once the divers enter the water the boat follows a float deployed by the divemaster, or a trail of divers’ bubbles, or both. The divemaster and the boat captain determine the direction of the dive before it begins based on the water conditions, including currents and visibility. Several factors determine the use of live boating. The most common reasons are a strong current, a deep...

Entering From a Small Boat: The Backroll

Thu, 04 Feb 2016 06:54:21 +0000
Learning to perform the backroll entry is an important skill to master. Many times dives are from a small boat or an inflatable boat without an entry/exit platform, making the backroll entry a necessity. New divers are often apprehensive about this particular skill. However, once the skill is learned and practiced, it is a simple way to exit small boats. This skill is especially useful when a giant stride entry is not possible. Just keep in mind that the goal isn’t to somersault or flip...

Mask Mastery: Simplifying the Skill of Mask Removal and Replacement

Wed, 16 Dec 2015 04:31:03 +0000
The first thing a new diver might likely say when told they will learn to remove and replace their mask while underwater might be, “Why would I ever want to do that?” Although you’ll rarely need to remove your mask underwater, there are times when this skill can come in handy, so it’s a good one to practice — and the simple act of breathing through a regulator underwater without the mask in place can be a big confidence booster during scuba training. Veteran scuba...

Navigation By the Numbers: How to Use a Compass

Thu, 10 Dec 2015 18:23:54 +0000
Once you master the concept, compass navigation becomes second nature. But when you’re trying to learn this much-needed and often-used skill, the effort can make your head spin like a magnet on the north needle. To simplify the process, compass navigation can be broken into two parts: the mechanics and the math. Scuba students often get hung up on the “math” of determining a compass course (i.e., adding or subtracting degrees), but sometimes the problem lies with the underly...

Escaping the Ordinary: Discovering Puerto Rico

Wed, 07 Oct 2015 20:42:52 +0000
Puerto Rico might not be the center of the universe, but for perhaps 200 years it was considered the gateway to the Caribbean. Ships sailing from Europe to the New World would travel south to Africa, and then pick up the trade winds that carried them west across the Atlantic. The journey would be arduous, and after weeks on the open ocean, crews would seek shelter, water and supplies in a safe port on the island paradise of Puerto Rico. Revived and resupplied, they could continue on their way to...

‘Music In the Air’: The Sweet Melodies of Hawaii’s Big Island

Thu, 01 Oct 2015 04:29:43 +0000

Hawaii is paradise. It might be cheesy to say it, but there’s music in the air there. ~ music star Bruno Mars
Paradise has a platinum-selling soundtrack. On the Big Island of Hawaii, the main track includes the sounds of palm trees swaying in the breeze, waves rushing up to meet the shore and, in the distance, the strumming of a ukulele being played at a luau. Another track features tropical birdsongs and the occasional staccato of spinner dolphins as...

A Living Eden: Rocking the Republic of Palau

Thu, 01 Oct 2015 04:11:38 +0000
The refreshing, somewhat unnerving and awe-inspiring view through the open doorway of the wobbling Cessna 182 unveils Palau’s majestic Rock Islands. These mushroom-shaped remnants of ancient limestone coral reefs are topped with dense, lush forests and surrounded by richly saturated turquoise-to-cobalt-blue seas. As if on cue, a radiant rainbow appears before me to complete the picture-postcard setting. I extend my lens into the buffeting wind to try to avoid shooting the right wing and...

When you first arrive on St. Croix, you’ll immediately notice the warmth and beauty of an exotic tropical destination. It’s like you’re a million miles from the familiarity of everyday life back home. Yes, this is paradise. And when you notice that there’s no miles-long line to clear customs and immigration — and that folks are saying hello and welcoming you in English? Well, this is when you start to feel like your “exotic” destination just got a little...

[custom_ad_728_90] In the northwestern Caribbean just 90 miles (144 km) south of Cuba is a trio of relatively small islands that make up the Cayman Islands. Grand Cayman, at 22 miles (35 km) long and 7 miles (11 km) wide, is almost twice the length and many times wider than its smaller “Sister Islands” of Cayman Brac and Little Cayman, 89 miles (142 km) to the northeast.

Giving Voice to Passion: On Writing From the Heart

Wed, 30 Sep 2015 02:21:03 +0000
“My name is Marty Snyderman, and I am a writer.” Like everyone else in the writers’ seminar I was participating in, that is the way I was instructed to introduce myself by the seminar leader. As she explained to us, she believes there is a higher degree of personal commitment to the craft and your involvement in it when you look people in the eye and tell them you are a writer. Identifying one’s self in that manner makes a much stronger statement than do comments such as,...

The Post-Dive Breakdown: Tips for Disassembling the Scuba Unit

Wed, 30 Sep 2015 00:51:15 +0000
Where, when and exactly how you go about disassembling your scuba unit depends on whether you are diving from shore or a boat and if you are changing to a fresh tank between dives or are disassembling the unit to pack away in your gear bag. When shore diving it is best to wear or carry your scuba unit back to base camp before disassembling. Under all circumstances, avoid pulling the unit across the ground or allowing the second-stage regulators to drag in the sand. Many times it is safest to ...

Rising dramatically from the depths of the Caribbean Sea is the stunning volcanic island of Saba.

St. Kitts Diving: An Island Made for Adventures

Fri, 11 Sep 2015 21:04:40 +0000
St. Kitts is rapidly emerging as a top vacation hot spot in the eastern Caribbean. Nestled between Antigua and St. Maarten, the lush landscape is dominated by the extinct volcano of Mount Liamigua, while the shorelines are a study in contrast — beautiful black volcanic sand and powdery white-sand beaches. Visitors will find that nature’s incredible beauty is intoxicating to the senses, as are adventures such as ziplining above the rain forest canopy or diving into the crystal waters...

You certainly don’t have to be terminally ill to have such a list and as divers we have a “must dive” list that constantly grows as we read about locations worldwide that offer great diving. But there is one we have checked off our list yet return to year after year. It is Little Cayman. We are never disappointed and...

Congratulations! You’ve earned your scuba certification. Now it’s time to get in the water and use it. Whether you dive a nearby lake or quarry or venture into ocean waters, the best way to hone your newly acquired scuba skills is to dive, dive, dive and then dive some more. As your instructor undoubtedly cautioned, becoming certified is only the first step in becoming a competent, well-rounded scuba diver. Hopefully you’ve had the opportunity after completing the entry-leve...

‘You’re A Diver?’ Talking Scuba With a Nondiver

Wed, 02 Sep 2015 18:51:28 +0000
I’ve had virtually the same conversation countless times in the past 30 or so years. It usually goes something like this: I’m participating in some nondiving activity — enjoying social time with friends, meeting new people while participating in a sporting event, even waiting in a long line or during a flight to a dive destination. Small talk with the person beside me leads to discussion of how else we occupy our time other than whatever we happen to be doing (or waiting to do)...

Becoming a Scuba Diver

Wed, 02 Sep 2015 13:50:22 +0000

I almost didn’t become a scuba diver.
But the reason had nothing to do with a lack of interest. It’s that I didn’t know how to become a scuba diver. That might sound strange coming from someone who completed a certification course, but not if you really understand what it takes to become a diver. You see, just getting certified doesn’t make you a diver; a c-card is merely a license to learn how to become one. It saddens me to think just how many p...

Swimming In the Forest: A Kelp Diving How-to

Tue, 01 Sep 2015 20:19:58 +0000
Do you enjoy new and exciting scuba experiences? If you haven’t ventured into a kelp forest, you might want to add it to your diving “to do” list. The term kelp refers to a number of species of brown algae. Kelp is composed of the rootlike holdfast, which anchors it to the bottom of the ocean; the stalklike stipe, which grows toward the surface from the holdfast; and broad, leaflike blades that extend upward and outward from the stipe. Stipes and the blades that grow from th...

Divers of a Certain Age: Scuba Diving for Seniors

Fri, 28 Aug 2015 00:09:34 +0000
We have been avid divers for more than three decades now, and can honestly say that we enjoy diving now as much if not more than we did 30 years ago. Certainly there are things we don’t do now that we once did and our approach to diving has changed a bit but that doesn’t take away from the enjoyment. And when we travel, we do take advantage of the perks — the “senior discounts” offered to the over-50 crowd. So what does an older diver need to be aware of and how can...

I Want to Be Like Chuck: On Following a Great Example

In the spring of 1975 I had just graduated from the now-defunct NASDS diving instructor college in San Diego, but I had no idea how to get my hoped-for career headed in the right direction. I was flat broke and actually spent a few nights sleeping in my car when I miraculously got hired to work at Chuck Nicklin’s San Diego Diving Locker.

You've heard the adage, “Use it or lose it!” There is a lot of truth in that. In Open Water class you learn just enough to get you out there diving safely in the environment in which you were trained. Then the learning process continues; experience and continuing education are great teachers. But if you don’t follow up and begin using those newly acquired skills within a reasonable time, they deteriorate and eventually disappear. The scuba unit removal and replacement skill ...

Vacationers enjoy adventures available in the BVI’s 28 national parks, including hiking to the top of Sage Mountain or visiting rustic Callwood Distillery, a centuries-old distillery where rum is made the traditional way.

I Could Go On and On…On Being Better Divers

Thu, 06 Aug 2015 04:21:15 +0000
The conditions were perfect. With no moon in sight and a crystal-clear sky, the stars appeared to be exceptionally bright. And the water at La Jolla Shores off the coast of San Diego was flat-calm, like a lake. Not even the occasional ankle slapper. I have only seen the water like that off San Diego a few times in 40 years. After entering the water, Fred and I swam several hundred yards on the surface to get into position with our on-shore lineups before dropping in to explore a site known lo...

This thing is enormous. It's the size of my office, easy, and the grooves look like a giant green fingerprint. Or, better yet, like the convolutions of its namesake, a brain. Yet, this monster isn't even a "big" brain coral, by local standards. A bigger one - the biggest, actually, in the Caribbean, if not the world - is only a couple of hundred yards from here. Still, I kick against the current to get a closer look at the whirls and ridges, but, like that, the current pulls me away. ...

This isn’t the case for Aruba, though. The tiny Dutch possession really does wear its nickname well. Its people are friendly, amenities are fun ...

Tue, 04 Aug 2015 14:06:00 +0000
If the words "desert" and "diving" don't seem to go together, then you haven't visited the desert island/diving destination of Bonaire. Bonaire got its name, which means "good air," from the constant easterly wind that provides gentle cooling breezes. Bonaire is the "B" in a group of islands collectively called the ABC Islands of the Netherlands Antilles. The A and C are Aruba and Curaçao, respectively. All are volcanic and ringed with old exposed...

Exploring Bonaire: Adventure From Sea to Shore

Tue, 04 Aug 2015 13:57:17 +0000
Our first visit to Bonaire more than 20 years ago gave us an unexpected surprise. Caribbean Islands are covered with swaying palm trees, right? Not always. We marveled at a landscape covered with cactus and other hardy species of plants and animals that could survive in a semi-arid climate that receives only 22 inches (56 cm) of rainfall annually. These discoveries were the first of many more exciting ones during our visit. We returned recently, knowing not to expect palm trees, but excited t...

Grenada and Carriacou: A Caribbean Reef and Rainforest Adventure

Mon, 27 Jul 2015 22:29:10 +0000
In the late 1970s I had the privilege of living on Grenada’s sister island, Carriacou. At that time, these two islands were really on the Caribbean frontier. Despite its size (133 square miles [346 sq. km]), Grenada still did not have an airport that could handle even medium-sized jets. You could walk through St. George’s, Grenada’s capital city, and hear steel drum bands practicing in the distance and the static scramble of a short-wave radio broadcasting world news. During...

The Island of Barbados: Adventures on ‘The Rock’

Mon, 27 Jul 2015 03:02:28 +0000
We hover at 130 feet (39 m) alongside the riotously colorful propeller on one of Barbados’ — and the Caribbean’s — premier wreck dives, the 365-foot (111-m) S.S. Stavronikita or “Stav” as the locals call it. My buddy snaps a few photos before we approach our no-deco limits. With the visibility nearing 100 feet (30 m) and virtually no current, we easily explore a considerable portion of this impressive structure as we ascend to shallower sights. The enormous...

Treasure Islands: St. Vincent and the Grenadines

Mon, 27 Jul 2015 02:52:44 +0000
“Not all treasure is silver and gold, mate,” says Capt. Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) to young Will Turner (Orlando Bloom) in the Walt Disney movie “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl.” Certainly he was referring to the natural riches found in St. Vincent and the Grenadines where the movie and upcoming two sequels were partially filmed. Nicknamed the underwater “critter capitol” of the Caribbean, St. Vincent’s marine life is not only...

Dominica: The Eastern Caribbean’s Nature and Adventure Island

Mon, 27 Jul 2015 02:42:01 +0000
Millions of years ago, volcanic eruptions unleashed their fury in what’s now the Eastern Caribbean. A towering island rose from the center of the rage. Smack in the path of the trade winds sweeping in from the Atlantic Ocean, the mountainous island was doused with rainfall. Six different types of forests sprouted, providing habitats for thousands of tropical plant species and hundreds of birds. Underwater, marine life thrived on the walls, pinnacles and reefs. This was the beginning of...

He made sure the little Suzuki 4x4 had a spare tire, a jack, and made note of all the dents larger than a softball. As he handed us the keys, he gave us one final bit of warning, “Ya need to be blowan da horn at every turn in da hills!” And with this sage advice, we jumped into the Suzuki and eagerly headed toward the impossibly green...

Saba and Statia: Mighty Mounts of the Lesser Antilles

Mon, 27 Jul 2015 01:15:10 +0000
Who would guess that these two tiny, cloud-dusted mounts rising abruptly from the ocean floor in the eastern Caribbean could harbor so many secrets, so much excitement? Born of molten lava and raised violently from the depths, Saba and St. Eustatius (better known as Statia) pack in enough physical beauty, cultural interest and thrilling underwater experiences to satisfy the most sophisticated traveler, the most intrepid diver. Underwater, the islands nearly mirror the topside topography. Magn...

Puerto Rico: The Caribbean’s Rich Port

Sun, 26 Jul 2015 18:30:33 +0000
Early Taino Indians who inhabited Puerto Rico called it Borinquen, which means “the great land of the valiant and noble lord.” In the late 1400s, when Christopher Columbus claimed the island for Spain, he first named it “San Juan Bautista” in honor of St. John the Baptist. The town was named Puerto Rico, Spanish for “rich port.” Later the names were switched, and the island — now a popular vacation spot rich with natural beauty and pristine diving &mdash...

Grand Bahama Island: Paradise, by Design

Sat, 25 Jul 2015 02:24:35 +0000
Until the '50s, the island of Grand Bahama was sparsely populated, consisting of small fishing villages and little industry. My, how times have changed. These days, Grand Bahama Island is one of the most inviting islands in the Caribbean. But its development as a tourist attraction didn't happen by accident. In fact, it's the only island in the Bahamas developed from a master plan set in motion in the 1950s to create a tropical paradise for vacationers from around the world. As a result, G...

Outposts of the Bahamas: Sampling the Southern Out Islands

Fri, 24 Jul 2015 23:26:17 +0000
If the axiom is true that the more remote the destination, the better the diving, then we’re all in luck: Along the vast chain of Bahamian islands (700 we’re told) there’s plenty of "remote" still waiting to be discovered, and it’s surprisingly easy to find. Simply head "down island" into the southeastern portion of the archipelago. It may take a bit more effort and planning than a trip to the major tourist centers, but adventurous souls will be well...

Trek to the southern Out Islands of the Bahamas is a back-to-nature, people-to-people kind of experience. Locals socialize around the conch bar in the afternoon and still wave to one another as they drive from settlement to settlement. Venturing to these islands is a thrill in itself. From Nassau’s New Providence Island, the soft greens and pale blues of the Great Bahama Bank swirl in a spectacular kaleidoscope of color and pattern. Islands and small cays sprawl over a turquoise canvas ...

Every destination has its marquee attraction — something that immediately comes to mind. When we think of the Turks and Caicos Islands, that attraction is the miles and miles of white-sand beaches. Our first visit to the island chain had us strolling for hours along the shoreline, enjoying sunsets, sunrises and views of the clear-blue waters. This island nation also boasts some terrific wall diving. Add easy access from the United States and you’ve got yourself a diving vacation with...

Cancun, Mexico: Exploring the Yucatan

Fri, 24 Jul 2015 22:21:44 +0000
The first time I visited the east coast of Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula was in the early 1970s. At that time the region was best known for its long, isolated stretches of white-sand beaches and the many accomplishments of the ancient Mayan civilization. While the diving was nothing short of fantastic, to enjoy it you had to travel completely self-contained, taking everything with you including an air compressor and tanks. Tourists were few and the now-famous resort area of Cancun was little...

Sandwiched between the high-rise glitz of Cancun and the ancient Mayan ruins of Tulum along Mexico’s Yucatan peninsula, and atop a magical underground river sits the marvelous Riviera Maya. Just a few years ago it was a collection of sleepy fishing villages dotting the Caribbean coast. Today it’s come alive as an international vacation destination for scuba divers, sun lovers, naturalists and explorers.

It is best known among divers for its own Great Barrier Reef — second in size only to that in Australia and the largest in the Western hemisphere.

Fri, 24 Jul 2015 17:30:46 +0000
“Jump!” screams the divemaster, just after someone yells, “whale shark.” Suddenly I’m in the water and nearly eye to eye with a whale shark. I fire a few frames and then the spotted 20-foot (6 m) juvenile is already past. This plankton-feeding animal did not seem to be moving fast when observed from the boat, but the “in water” perspective is altogether different. The camera drag and surface current make me feel like I am tethered in place, as I simply...

Diving in the Land of ‘Bula’: The South Pacific’s Fiji Islands

As the plane begins the descent into Nadi (Nan-dee), Fiji, passengers eagerly press their faces closer to the windows. Glistening below is the multicolored turquoise water of the Pacific, a scene that is beautiful to behold from an aerial view, but for divers holds a special allure. Upon arriving, guests are met with a chorus of “bula, bula” (Fijian for hello) from a crowd of friendly, smiling Fijian faces. For many of these travelers, this will be the trip of a lifetime when they...

Feeling like we had just stepped into a James Michener tale, it seemed that Fiji’s reputation for friendliness was well-deserved. Now all that...

Papua New Guinea: A Land of Painted Faces and Pygmy Sea Horses

Even in the 21st century, flying into tomorrow is a long, excruciating grind. By the time I reached the highlands of Papua New Guinea, I’d spent 26 hours in airplanes and airports. But diving this remote corner of the world is worth all the hassles, and then some. This isn’t your typical live-aboard dive trip. Papua New Guinea (PNG) is a vast, wild country where the infrastructure for tourism, or just about anything else, is in its infancy. That factor lends an aura of adventure to...

I had only been down on the Fujikawa Maru for a few minutes and my descent to the forward deck had shown no such spectacle. The sight was, to put it lightly, mind-blowing. As one of my dive buddies put it after the dive, “It was like the spirits of the men who died here were accompanying us on our visit.” This...

Size does matter. It matters a lot. The gargantuan flight deck of the USS Saratoga materialized out of the blue and I found myself testing my regulator’s flow capacity at only 50 feet (15 m). I was privy to a mere fraction of the 880-foot-long former floating airfield stretched out before me, yet I could vividly imagine bringing in my Hellcat from a successful mission. Half a dozen reef sharks flew in formation over the massive deck as if circling to land. Everywher...

The landscape below us was nothing short of breathtaking. Our travel weariness fell away. That single moment looking down on the turquoise blue of the ocean and the jungle-rich green of...

My camera had just taken a royal bath in a quarter cup of seawater, its internal parts melting. My trip was off to a dubious start on the island of Mindoro. This was my first trip to the Philippine Islands and I had some concerns about what I’d find both above and below the waves. As it turns...

Some techniques can be performed without assistance; others require help from your buddy.

Just sit in front of your unit, slide your hands back through the buoyancy compensator (BC) armholes, pull your ...

A Safe Habit: Safety Stops as Standard Procedure

Sat, 06 Jun 2015 19:48:30 +0000
SOME SAFETY SKILLS WE LEARN during Open Water scuba class are intended for use only in emergency situations. Because they are known to reduce the risk of decompression sickness (DCS), safety stops should be considered standard procedure for all dives below 33 feet (10 m); they should not be considered optional. The depth most commonly associated with the term safety stop is 15-20 feet (5-6 m). Divers are taught to remain at this depth for at least three to five minutes, as it allows the body ...

Back On the Boat: Tips for Exiting the Water With Ease

Wed, 06 May 2015 20:29:15 +0000
Last month’s Scuba Skills column addressed the sequence used when preparing to dive from a charter boat. It began with boarding the vessel and ended with a giant stride into the water. This month’s column addresses the opposite end of the diving adventure: the sequence used to reboard the boat at the end of the dive. Exiting onto a dive charter boat begins at the safety stop. Before final ascent, listen intently for noise from approaching boats and with your hand stretched overhea...

Small Wonders: Introducing Kids to the Underwater World

Fri, 06 Mar 2015 03:39:25 +0000
Some of my fondest memories from decades of diving have come since I started diving with my own daughters. Diving has been deeply ingrained into my life. There was never any doubt that when my own children got old enough, my wife and I would introduce them to the sport. As toddlers, my daughters learned about scuba gear from “helping” me rinse my gear after a day of diving. I showed them my underwater photos and we took them on trips to local marine aquariums and to the beach, where...

Diving That Counts: On Becoming a Citizen Scientist

Thu, 05 Mar 2015 21:35:40 +0000
What do you want to be when you grow up? I suspect that is a question every school-age kid in America gets asked frequently. Some people know the answer from an early age. It takes others a few tries at various careers before they find a good fit, and unfortunately some never manage to find their passion. In my case, I was lucky to see the light early on during my college years when I realized that I wanted to work in the marine realm. I became an underwater photographer, filmmaker, author an...

So You Want to Be a Scuba Instructor? A Look Inside the Diver’s Dream Job

Wed, 04 Mar 2015 14:57:48 +0000
"When are you going to get a real job?" It's a question that has followed me for my entire adult life. I mostly got it from my family, but the question was often heard from well-meaning friends who were sure that I was wasting my life by not pursuing a "career." Of course, the concern came from the fact that, unlike anyone else my family and friends knew, I was a scuba instructor. And the term “real job” was just a polite way of asking why I wanted to be a beac...

Different Day, Different Opportunity

Tue, 10 Feb 2015 04:33:49 +0000

I've spent a lot of time on Indo-Pacific reefs where a variety of anemonefish abound.
So it would be perfectly logical to me if you were to think that long ago I created my last-ever photograph of an anemonefish. But that is not the case. In fact, on a recent trip to the Micronesian island of Yap I shot around 1,000 frames of anemonefish. Many of those images were relatively simple portraits. That's because I still find anemonefish to be a combination of adorable and irr...

Out-of-Air Options: Playing It Safe By Practicing Air-Sharing Skills

Fri, 06 Feb 2015 22:49:19 +0000
CLOSELY MONITORING YOUR AIR SUPPLY WHILE DIVING GREATLY INCREASES YOUR ODDS OF NEVER BEING INVOLVED IN AN EMERGENCY AIR-SHARING SITUATION. However, there is always the possibility that you, your buddy or a nearby diver might run low on air. Regardless of how vigilant and conscientious you are, the need to share air while at depth is a real possibility. Every diver should be capable of and practiced at sharing air. In the early days, before the advent of the safe-second regulator (octopus),...

Setting a Course for Confidence: Tips for Navigating Underwater With Ease

Wed, 04 Feb 2015 21:46:27 +0000
Years ago when I was working in the tropics as a dive instructor, the first dive of the day was always a guided group dive, but on the second dive of the morning boat trip buddy teams could dive on their own. This made sense because the first dive was a 100-foot (30 m) wall dive, while the second was on a reef with a depth of less than 60 feet (18 m). On the deep dive the guide led the small group through hard-to-find crevasses and chimneys, and made sure no one exceeded the depth profile; on...

And with a wide-angle lens I should be able to easily get the critical elements in sharp focus. It’s getting a good exposure that can prove tricky in this scenario. Here’s why and what to do about it: The turtle was res...

Blue Water Diving: How to Deploy and Use a Lift Bag

Sat, 06 Dec 2014 14:56:25 +0000
THE WEIGHTLESSNESS AND ISOLATION OF BLUE-WATER DIVING, where neither the bottom, a boat overhead nor any natural feature is visible in any direction, has been compared to a mission to outer space. The bottom is out of sight and there are no visible references anywhere. A similar sensation, although quite different, is experienced in zerovisibility conditions. Here the isolation and lack of references are caused by poor visibility instead of seemingly endless clear water. A blue-water adventure...

Don’t Overlook the Ordinary

Tue, 10 Jun 2014 04:49:31 +0000
The yellow tang is one of the more commonly encountered reef fish in Hawaii and many other parts of the tropical Western Pacific. On many dives yellow tang are too numerous to count. These brightly colored fish quickly get the attention of underwater photographers the first few times we dive in areas where the yellow tang are common. But after a few dives many of us soon begin to swim right past them without giving them a second look. That's becaus...

The Sweet Taste of Success

Mon, 10 Feb 2014 05:15:46 +0000
This photograph of a hatching horn shark is one of my all-time favorites. First of all, capturing the moment is extremely rare. For this reason, the image has value. Second, every time I see the photograph I am reminded of the benefits that are often enjoyed from doing some research and talking with experts. In this case, the expert was a scientist who helped me understand when and where I might get my shot.[caption id="attachment_897" align="aligncenter" width="432&q...

Shooting Splits

Fri, 10 Jan 2014 05:22:06 +0000
One of the more compelling types of images that underwater photographers create is known as a split. Captured by positioning the lens at the water's surface so that some of the lens is recording the scene below the surface and the rest is capturing the topside scene, splits require some parameters to attain success. You need (1) an approachable subject that is of the right size, (2) flat seas, (3) the opportunity to compose a shot so you are not shooting directly into the sun, (4) enough light...

When in the water with large animals it can be challenging to think about photographic nuances, what with your heart pounding and adrenalin coursing through your body and all, but after a few encounters you'll probably be able to slow down a little and focus on composing a compelling image.[caption id="attachment_904" align="aligncenter" width="360"]

Shooting Sea Turtles

Sun, 10 Nov 2013 05:34:56 +0000
Sea turtles make wonderful subjects. While some turtles are wary of divers, many allow a close approach as long as you move slowly and don't frighten your potential photo subjects. The key is to move slowly. Never chase.[caption id="attachment_907" align="alignright" width="288"]

The Compose/Expose Challenge

Thu, 10 Oct 2013 05:42:59 +0000
The photo shown here presented me with several challenges that serve as an excellent teaching tool. The two biggest challenges were composing a pleasing shot while dealing with two subjects and acquiring a proper exposure when important elements in the frame pushed the exposure latitude limits of my camera's sensor.[caption id="attachment_910" align="alignright" width="288"]

Exploring Costa Rica’s Cocos Island: A Megafauna Mecca

Sun, 06 Oct 2013 01:29:18 +0000
Want to have a little fun? Try walking into a gathering of experienced divers as you say, “Cocos Island” a little bit louder than you would in normal conversation, and then be quiet as other conversations stop in midstream, and watch as heads turn toward you. That little bit of innocent fun will show you the high regard experienced divers have for Cocos. Inevitably you will soon hear those who suddenly gathered around you share their tales about encounters with schools of scalloped...

No Limits

Capturing behavioral images is often a process that involves repeated attempts to get your shot. Sometimes that process takes an entire dive. Sometimes days. And in my case, the photo you see here of an Indo-Pacific fish known as a slingjaw wrasse is the result of several years worth of effort.[caption id="attachment_914" align="alignright" width="288"]

The Model Diver

Mon, 10 Jun 2013 06:09:35 +0000
Upon first consideration it seems obvious that photographing divers would be a lot easier than photographing wildlife. But first impressions are not always correct, and this is one of those scenarios. It makes no difference whether that diver is the main subject or a complementary element in a photograph, working with a model adds another layer of complexity to creating photographs.[caption id="attachment_924" align="alignright" width="288"]

‘Fish In a Barrel’

Fri, 10 May 2013 06:14:28 +0000
The odds are extremely high against you ever seeing the gorgeous 3-inch-long (7.6 cm) fish pictured on this page during a scuba dive. That's because the only place the candy-striped, peppermint angelfish is known to live in reefs 350-450 feet (106-136 m) deep off the Tahitian island of Moorea. The fish was collected by the highly accomplished rebreather diver and deep-water explorer, Richard Pyle, Ph.D., of Hawaii's Bishop Museum, and is on display at the Waikiki Aquarium. It might surprise ...

Ready for the Close-Up

Wed, 10 Apr 2013 06:20:25 +0000
Fish faces are favorite subjects for many underwater photographers, but creating compelling fish portraits requires some forethought and the use of the best techniques. Let's start with the premise that it is usually best to get in sharp focus every facial feature from the eyes forward. That is usually not a problem if you are photographing a fish with a head that is only a couple of inches long. But in the case of fish that are roughly 10 inches (25.4 cm) long (or longer) as well as those sp...

Magic In the Muck

Sun, 10 Mar 2013 23:26:39 +0000
The term muck diving doesn't sound very appealing. That feeling only gets reinforced when you learn that muck divers spend a lot of time looking at small, rather drably colored creatures that do a good job of blending into mostly drab surroundings. But make one muck dive, and you might be hooked for life.[caption id="attachment_935" align="alignright" width="288"]

Underwater photography is considered a gear-intensive endeavor. Few will argue that it takes some time and effort to learn how to use everything from cameras and strobes to computer software. However, just because you own a piece of equipment doesn't mean you have to use it all the time. We want our equipment to give us options, not orders.[caption id="attachment_947" align="alignright" width="360"]

Difference Between Taking It and Making It

Thu, 13 Dec 2012 06:24:51 +0000
I often hear people talk about "taking photographs," and while I understand the expression, I think the verbiage often sells photographers short. I prefer to think that experienced photographers more commonly make, or create, photographs instead of more simply recording what is in front of them at any given moment. Good shooters analyze as many factors as possible as quickly as they can, and then position themselves to take advantage of the factors that work in their favor while...

A River in the Sea: Understanding the Gulf Stream

Mon, 02 Jun 2008 02:14:08 +0000
Since I was a kid I’ve been a real history buff. Of course, much of history, like a good novel, is character-driven; and my two all-time favorites from American history are Mark Twain and Ben Franklin. Like most, I admire Twain for his irreverent wit. Franklin, on the other hand, I admire because of every aspect of his life. A truly self-made — and educated — man, he rose from humble origins to become one of the most important figures of his day not only in America, but in the...

The Mythical Mermaid – The Missing Link Between Man and Fish?

Mon, 06 Aug 2007 15:50:14 +0000
'It was, apparently, a genuine letdown. Nearing the shores of the Dominican Republic in 1493, Christopher Columbus — yes, that Christopher Columbus — saw three mermaids bobbing along the surface near his ship. This was the moment he was waiting for. He’d been primed for a sighting — after all, he’d been at sea for months, and the Caribbean was known for its wealth of sea creatures — and finally, here they were. “In a bight at the coast of Hispaniol...

Why Are Reef Fish so Colorful? The Science Behind the Beauty

Thu, 02 Aug 2007 00:51:10 +0000
Gil Rosenthal learned to scuba dive in college, and since then he’s never been able to stay out of the water. Like most divers, he’s fascinated with marine life, and how, through the experience of diving, a colorful array of beautiful reef fish — angelfish, damselfish, wrasses, and others — swim all around him. It’s the colors that excite him the most; colors unimaginable growing up in Pittsburgh. “There’s just this beauty in the underwater world that...

An Interesting Dive Buddy: The Green Sea Turtle

Mon, 14 Aug 2006 23:00:14 +0000
Alternately gliding rather quickly, and then creeping ever so slowly, the octopus made its way across the reef. Hoping to photograph this clever master of camouflage, I was focused on scene in my viewfinder, but I could not help but notice out of the corner of my eye someone following me rather closely. I didn’t look up, as I had my hands full trying to keep track of my photographic quarry. I assumed I was accompanied by another photographer who, like me, was octopus-intrigued. After I...

Seafaring Superstitions & Marine Myth Rituals Explored

Sun, 06 Aug 2006 15:45:34 +0000
You are a 19th-century mariner, living in the dank, dark quarters of a sailing ship, at the mercy of capricious wind and weather, six weeks from your last sighting of land. There is no marine weather forecast, no radio, no satellite communication; in fact no communication with the world as you knew it for periods ranging from months to years. You are virtually isolated from the rest of humanity. The captain is the absolute dictator; the ship is his kingdom. You and the rest of the crew are serfs...

The Quarry Story – An Adventure into North America’s Hidden Wonders

Sat, 05 Aug 2006 02:56:25 +0000
For 80 years, the Portland Quarries have remained hidden in the background of everyday life. Almost forgotten. Many town residents did not even know where they were! “Not so today. The possibility of opening the quarries to scuba divers carries with it a whole new way to appreciate the quarries. And sure enough, they are more than a little interested. Recreational scuba divers are a dedicated lot. They often travel quite far on the weekends just for a few hours of diving. They view the ...

As your diving career progresses you will undoubtedly experience a lot of firsts; the first time you breathe underwater, your first dive trip, encountering your first shark, and the first time you visit a particular destination. Without question, for many divers one of those firsts that is forever etched in their memories is the first time they look down onto the grandeur of a coral reef. Life and color abound as a coral reef ecosystem invites its exploration. For many divers it comes as quit...

Better biology professors teach us not just to record what we see when we look at the world around us, but to think about why things are the way they are. Paying heed to their advice can be extremely helpful in gaining insight into the world of fishes. Early in your diving career, as you begin to acquire knowledge about fishes, you will learn that factors such as time of year, water temperature and the availability of food play a fundamental role in determining where and how various species l...

My doc is an affable and competent person whom, like it or not, I visit on a fairly regular basis. Over the past several years I’ve been poked, probed, palpated, stuck, irradiated and imaged in every way imaginable, and some that aren’t so. Heck, I even get my teeth...

Living in the Middle of Nowhere: Creatures of the Sand and Rubble

Mon, 15 May 2006 18:28:08 +0000
If you watch a group of scuba divers as they begin a dive, you likely will see them enter the water and make a dash for the closest reef, kelp forest or wreck. If they come across any stretches of sand or rubble their intent is usually to get past the area as quickly as they can so they can get to “the good stuff.” If this describes you, I suggest that sometimes on the way to or from the reef, kelp beds or wreck, you allow yourself sufficient air and bottom time to spend a few...

Defense Mechanisms: How Marine Creatures Avoid Predation

Thu, 13 Apr 2006 13:31:44 +0000
In the marine world, one of the fundamental challenges for many creatures is to eat and not get eaten. Early on in life most children learn that a variety of very capable apex predators such as killer whales, sharks and barracudas roam the world’s oceans and that the oceans can be a dangerous place for animals that drop their guard. But as we grow older and learn more about the oceans and marine wildlife it becomes obvious that there are a lot more marine creatures that are not top-end ...

Boat Diving Unchartered: Planning a Dive from a Private Boat

Tue, 11 Apr 2006 13:57:21 +0000
They both sensed that something wasn’t right. “From that depth we should have been able to see the boat,” says my friend Lance, a private boat owner and recreational diver. “As we ascended the mooring line, it became obvious that our boat was no longer attached. We were panic-stricken!” While Lance and his wife were enjoying their dive, their boat had come loose from the mooring and drifted away. After clinging to the mooring ball for...

Gold of the Tropics: The Banana

Fri, 07 Apr 2006 14:17:36 +0000
In a dripping green jungle somewhere in the tropics, a banana plant shoots up from the moist ground. Laden with fruit, the tall shady stalk bends under the weight of its bounty. Soon, sweet slices of creamy banana adorn breakfast entrees and dessert creations in many parts of the world. But bananas are more than just tropical treats. For millions of people, they are an important source of food and income.

Say the word lobster and you will likely get a variety of reactions ranging from kids who smile from thinking about some of their favorite cartoon characters to adults whose mouths water thinking about a culinary treat. Still others might cringe, thinking of lobsters as strange sea creatures.

Wed, 15 Feb 2006 00:24:19 +0000
I’ve never tired of watching student divers return from their first open-water experience. Their enthusiasm is always contagious, and you couldn’t shut them up if you held a gun to their heads. If you are a diver, I’m sure you can remember your first time. If you are lucky enough to watch this scene unfold after a dive on a coral reef, then I’ll wager that most of the exuberant discussion involves one subject: fish. “Did you see that bright blue one?

After almost every dive someone immediately begins to try to describe a fish they saw. The first questions they are asked in response are “what did it look like, how big was it, what color was it, and what was it doing?” At that point you are very likely to hear something about the fish’s body shape, size and color, the look of its face, eyes and mouth, and a comment or two about whether the animal was striped or had spots or other distinct markings, and where the fish was seen...

After almost every dive someone grabs a reference to try and identify animals they saw. Upon flipping through the book and finding the perfect match, someone shouts out the name as others crowd around to look and verify. If a consensus is reached the gathering soon dissipates with the general feeling of “mission accomplished.” But is it? When we identify animals in this way and go no further, we often sell ourselves short by seeing only part of the picture that was right in front ...

How to Shine at Night Diving: Tips for Using a Dive Light

Sun, 11 Dec 2005 14:22:55 +0000
Dive lights are necessary for you to see at night underwater; they’re also your principle means of communication at night. In the daytime they come in handy for lighting places where the sun doesn’t reach — overhangs, crevices, swim-throughs — and for those trained in overhead environments, wrecks, caverns and caves. Dive lights come in many shapes, sizes and purposes — large and small, wide beam and narrow beam, electric and chemical...

Reefs in the Deepfreeze: Understanding Cold Water Corals

Thu, 10 Nov 2005 21:33:10 +0000
In the fall of 1974 I made my first dive on a Pacific coral reef. But unlike what you might imagine, it didn’t take place in Hawaii, Fiji, Australia or any other tropical isle where the sea was as warm as bath water. My dive took place in the chilly depths off Southern California’s Catalina Island, on a site called Farnsworth Bank. Much to my surprise, what I witnessed on that bright September morning was one of the most beautiful coral formations I&rs...

Ask a group of football, basketball, soccer and baseball coaches what attributes they fear most in their opponents and look for when they build their own teams, and one of the more common answers would be speed.

Fashion Statements or Important Appendages?: Why Some Bottom Dwellers Wear ‘Beards’

Tue, 13 Sep 2005 13:38:08 +0000
Beards. Mustaches. Whiskers. In human males facial hair is used to enhance one’s appearance, intimidate, add stature, set one apart from the crowd and perhaps to help attract a mate. Throughout the ages, men like Socrates, Abraham Lincoln, Wyatt Earp and the members of ZZ Top have worn distinctive styles of facial hair to distinguish themselves. But what about the whiskers, barbels and other appendages that resemble human facial hair found on seals, sea lions, manatees, walruses, bony f...

In many respects the ocean is a world in motion. Fishes swarm, circle and move in perfectly synchronized schools. Nomadic populations of bluefin tuna and blue sharks migrate across both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. In the longest mammal migration known to science, California gray whales spend their summer months feeding in the Bering Sea, the winter months in their breeding and calving grounds in a series of lagoons along the Pacific coast of Baja, and the time in between making the 10,000...

The Good Stuff is Deep: Dispelling Common Scuba Myths

After all, he had heard that the “really good stuff” was in deep water, and that’s where he wanted to go. The misinformation he had received, combined with his desire to be seen by others as a dashing, daring conqueror of “the deep” conspired to make him a particularly “at risk” individual. Fortunately, through the efforts of a good...

Ancient mariners always kept a close eye out for seabirds as harbingers of terra firma. Fishermen, too, have used them for years to help find their targeted catch. For thousands of years seabird eggs have been important sources of food for coastal peoples around the globe. As divers, seabirds help us find submerged reefs and schooling fishes, rafts of floating seaweed and activity in the ocean. We marvel at their beauty, grace and ability to effortlessly soar above us as they simultaneously e...

My cohorts and I sat for days waiting in a musty hotel room before the orders came allowing us civilians to board. Later, under the cover of darkness, the crew slipped the lines and we headed out from Cape Canaveral into the cold Atlantic for a week-long transit. Like a diver heading out into open water, I was bubbling over with the excitement and anticipatio...

Sea anemones occur in a variety of colors that vary from fire engine red to drab brown. Many species are both colorful and delicate-looking, and their long, thin tentacles often appear to flow back and forth in the surge and current like...

The water there is as blue as anywhere on earth. The underwater visibility is routinely 150 feet (45 m) or more. In fact, the water is so clear that even for a veteran diver it can be hard to accurately estimate sizes and distances underwater. Sometimes other divers and animals like manta rays and green sea turtles look like miniatures because you can see them so clearly from such great underwater distances. I am talking about Hawaii. The volcanic islands of our 50th state are the most isolat...

There is hardly a diver alive who hasn’t frantically signaled his buddy after sighting some interesting creature only to turn back to point at the original object of interest to discover that the creature is nowhere to be seen. That moment is usually followed by a bit of confusion and reorientation, a building sense of frustration followed by a few 360-degree turns and eventually embarrassment. Finally the diver has to look at his buddy and try to explain via underwater charades that there...

The green fronds of the trees rustle in the ocean breeze, offering a shady retreat from the equatorial heat. To the modern dive traveler, coconut palms signify warm seas and sunny beaches.

For many divers, the idea creates the most irresistible of urges. For others the mere thought makes their skin crawl. This concept that is compelling to some and repelling to others is merely the act of taking a close-up look into a hole, crack or crevice during a dive. The cavity in question might be the diameter of a large coin or the size of a small cave, but in any case, some divers cannot resist the urge to squeeze their face as far into the opening as they can, while others swim away as...

If there is a force of nature that disrupts dives and disorients divers as much as any other, it is current. On the flip side, current can be an asset; when used to the diver’s advantage, it makes for an effortless and relaxing diving experience.

Birds do it. Bees do it. So do fishes. All compete for mates, court, mate and reproduce. Perhaps surprising to many divers, the game of love is as fascinating — and perhaps as complicated — in the world of fishes as it is in the lives of humans. In this real-life game, strategies vary greatly, but the self-serving goal is always the same, and that is for each fish to pass its genetic code to the next generation. The success of sufficient numbers of members of each species helps en...

Few sights in the natural world are as spectacular as that of a healthy forest of giant kelp witnessed on a day when the sky and water are clear, the sea is calm and sunlight penetrates the sea. On days like these, when you slip below the surface you enter a magical world where shimmering rays of sunlight dance through a golden undersea forest of towering fronds of giant kelp. The golden hues of kelp stand out against the blue-green water. Descend 20-30 feet (6-9 m) and you soon become aware...

I turned with the shark as it swam around me, hoping that it would come in for a closer look. After a few revolutions the animal disappeared from my view, and I began to wonder if today just wasn’t going to be my day. But if I have learned anything in the business of photographing marine wildlife it is that while not all acts of patience...

But occasionally, some of the things you thought you’d never know get answered if you ask the right question, use the right tools, and look in the right place. That turns everything on its head, and everything you thought you knew deserves another look. That’s what’s happening with a group of internatio...

Did You Hear That? The Not-So-Silent Undersea World

Sun, 15 Aug 2004 19:10:49 +0000
Want to get away from it all? Enjoy a little peace and tranquility? No ringing telephones, doorbells, ranting bosses, radios or stereos turned up so loud you vibrate, and no screaming kids. No one calling in the middle of dinner to tell you what to think, who to vote for or what to buy. Just peace, quiet and nature. This was the message conveyed by the learn-to-dive ads when I was a kid some 40 years ago. Back then the underwater realm was routinely referred to as the silent world. But during...

They’ve Got Faces Only Their Mothers Could Love: Frogfishes, Toadfishes, Scorpionfishes and Stonefishes

Wed, 07 Jul 2004 13:58:39 +0000
[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]I have heard these fishes described as being so ugly that their looks are endearing, so ugly that they are cute. Grotesque, frumpy, grumpy, defiant and alien looking are some other words used to describe these fishes, a group that includes a variety of species known as frogfishes, toadfishes, scorpionfishes and stonefishes. While these fishes share the characteristic of having faces that can make you recoil, taxonomic specialists describe them in different f...

Muddy Waters: Techniques for Low-Vis Diving

Sun, 04 Jul 2004 05:20:15 +0000
Call me a wimp if you want, but my enthusiasm for diving is proportional to how far I can see underwater. It is safe to say that, given a choice, many divers would prefer good visibility. However, sometimes you don’t have a choice; even when you try to avoid it, turbid water can sneak up on you. That happened to me in the Galapagos Islands. Beautiful day, clear water and sud...

Sea Stars: Jewels of the Seashore and the Reefs

Tue, 15 Jun 2004 20:07:38 +0000
As school-age kids, long before we even thought of becoming scuba divers, almost all of us had some awareness about the marine creatures known as sea stars. Our knowledge came from nursery rhymes, poems, stories about walks along the seashore, and if you were lucky, from personal encounters when you explored tide pools or vacationed at a beach. Sea stars are the jewels of many tide pools and a highlight of many beach excursions. Either near the beach or as part of an undersea scene, sea stars...

What Makes A Fish A Fish? Common Characteristics of Fishes

Mon, 17 May 2004 03:19:07 +0000
Here’s a question for you: In addition to living in water, whale sharks, manta rays, moray eels, groupers, gobies, rainbow trout and sea horses have what in common? Clearly these animals vary in size. Some live along the seafloor, while others live in the water column and roam the open sea. Most live in salt water, but one lives in freshwater streams. Some, but not all, are filter feeders. Before you hurt your brain trying to come up with the answer, let me tell you that the answer I am...

New Kids on the Block: How Scientists Identify New Species

Thu, 13 May 2004 14:09:57 +0000
The picture didn’t match the name. The small red sea horse didn’t look like a juvenile pygmy sea horse even if that’s what the photographer said it was, and even if it was found on a gorgonian fan, which is where you’d find a pygmy sea horse if you were inclined to look for one. But there was no bulbous snout, or tubercles, or three rings on the tail, all of which you’d expect to see in a Hippocampus bargibanti. Well, then, if it’s not H. bargibanti, what i...

The fish, a spectacularly colored grouper, paused and opened its mouth. Finning only slightly to maintain its position just a foot (30 cm) or so above the reef, this brightly colored red and blue-spotted grouper waited patiently for another fish, a cleaner wrasse, to provide its services. Within only a few seconds the cleaner approached and went to work, moving from the tail toward the head along the grouper’s body. The cleaner paused every few seconds to pick at the skin of the grouper. ...

OK, “Finding Nemo” fans, you’d better sit down. I’ve got some bad news. First off, fish can’t talk. Matter of fact, fish can’t really think, either. But here’s the kicker. Fish apparently can’t even feel pain. That’s the latest from the world of piscine anatomy, and it’s not without controversy. In fact, it’s turning into a big case of international scientific “he said, she said.” At the heart of it all is a ques...

Mistaken for Mermaids? A Closer Look at Manatees

Mon, 15 Dec 2003 17:52:01 +0000
Legend has it that when ancient mariners first sailed the waters off what is now Florida, they occasionally mistook manatees for mermaids. Having swum with these rather sausage-shaped, 1,500-pound marine mammals, I have often wondered how long those poor, lonely men had been at sea to make such a grievous error. I assure you that there is a huge gap between having a bad hair day and being mistaken for a manatee. Yet, there is no question that despite their less-than-svelte appearance, manatee...

Alcohol, Nicotine & Divers – What You Should Know

The last thing you probably want to read is another tirade on the dangers of drinking and smoking. Besides, what can I say that’s new? Although some recent evidence points to drinking alcohol in moderation as a health benefit, no one doubts the dire consequences of imbibing in excess. And no informed person on Earth doubts that smoking is merely a form of protracted suicide. But while we’ve known about these dangers for decades, many of us still drink — at least occasionally ...

No Oxygen, No Life: The Gulf of Mexico’s ‘Dead Zone’

Tue, 02 Dec 2003 01:58:38 +0000
The words “dead zone” evoke sci-fi movie scenes of a Martian landscape or the aftermath of a nuclear blast. Bleak places where life is absent and things go bump in the dark. In the Gulf of Mexico, a real dead zone exists, and the suffocating effects to the area’s inhabitants are as frightening as a horror film. The Gulf of Mexico dead zone is an oxygen-starved area devoid of most marine life. It is off the Louisiana coast where the Mississippi River empties into the Gulf of ...

My buddy Pete and I were hustling along, trying to get across the “barren” sand flat so we could explore the kelp forest. We were only a few feet over the sandy bottom when something caught my eye. I stopped and stared down at the sand, but saw nothing. Pete circled around and hovered next to my side as I sheepishly pointed at what looked like an empty patch of sand. About the time that I found myself wishing that Pete had never seen me stop, I saw another very slight movement. It...

Some bury themselves so well in sand bottoms that all you see is a faint outline of their bodies. Others rest out in the open on the sea floor and are relatively easy to spot. Some appear to “fly” with extraordinary grace while still others undulate their fins to propel themselves. Some have potent spines, or “stingers” on their tails. Others have no barb at all, and still others possess the ability to deliver a potent electric shock. Some weigh more than 2 tons while ...

I was 60 feet (18 m) deep in water off San Diego’s famed La Jolla district composing a photograph of a little-finger-long Spanish shawl nudibranch, a shell-less snail, when “the lights went out.” The water and sky were unusually clear that day, but all of a sudden things got strangely dark. As I was trying to figure out what was happening, I looked up to discover a 50-foot- (16-m-) long California gray whale hovering over me.
No wonder it had gotten so dark. ...

Tanking Up: An Inside Look at Scuba Cylinders

Precious few things are as seemingly simple as a scuba cylinder, but don’t let that fool you. Although a cylinder may seem like a dumb hunk of metal, it does serious work. Filled to capacity, a typical cylinder carrying 80 standard cubic feet of air — enough to fill a phone booth — compressed to a pressure of 3,000 psi carries a total energy roughly equivalent to an automobile traveling at jet airliner speeds. More important than that, our scuba cylinder carries our most...

Long before we cleared the point, we could hear the cacophony of incessant barking, meaning there was no doubt that we were going to see plenty of animals. As we made the turn we were still several hundred yards away from the anchorage at the rookery, but already we could see dozens of big sausage-shaped creatures belly-flopped on the sandy beach and along the rocks. More animals were in the water with their heads bobbing up and down at the surface while another handful began to race toward our...

Ins and Outs: How to Choose Entry and Exit Locations

Sat, 05 Jul 2003 02:38:06 +0000
Entering and exiting the water are fairly simple tasks once you learn the correct techniques. From shore, divers shuffle in with fins in place or carry them into chest-deep water and don them while floating on the surface. Exiting onto shore is generally a reverse of the method used to enter. When diving from a boat, the controlled seated entry, back roll and giant stride are commonly used techniques. And to get back onto the boat, climb the ladder or perform a deep-water exit. From a dock...

"Coral reefs of the world have continued to decline since the previous GCRMN report in 1998. Assessments to late 2000 are that 27% of the world’s reefs have been effectively lost, with the largest single cause being the massive climate-related coral bleaching event of 1998. This destroyed about 16% of the coral reefs of the world in 9 months during the largest El Niño and La Niña climate changes ever recorded. While there is a good chance that many of the 16% of damaged...

I remember quite vividly seeing for the first time the movie “Jaws.” It was the summer of 1975 and, like everyone else, it scared the bejeezus out of me. In fact, for two reasons it had more effect on me than most.

Secondly, one of my favorite dive sites...

Phylum: Chordata (cord) Subphylum: Vertebrata (animals with backbones) Class: Chondricthyes and Osteicthyes (Cartilaginous Fishes) (Bony Fishes)
I suppose there are those of us who love to dive because of an interest in corals, worms, sea stars, squids, lobsters or some other group of invertebrates. And undoubtedly there are specialists among us who have a keen interest in marine reptiles such as sea snakes or turtles. But there is not much doubt that most of us are draw...

On The Brink of Extinction: Examining How the U.S. Endangered Species Act Works

Tue, 02 Oct 2001 02:35:14 +0000
A white cloud of mist spouts from the ocean’s surface, followed seconds later by the rise and fall of an enormous fluked tail. A humpback whale is sighted along the West Coast of North America; to witness this endangered species is a rare treat. While humpbacks are spotted infrequently, thousands of gray whales can be seen during their annual migration. But just 70 years ago, gray whales were rarely seen in the Pacific Ocean. Overexploited by commercial whalers, the species was in danger...

Phylum: Echinodermata (spiny-skin) Whether you are a newly certified diver (if so, we offer our congratulations) or an old salt (good for you, too), odds are you are familiar with the animals known as echinoderms. Of course, you might not realize it because most of us use other names when referring to the animals described in the phylum Echinodermata (ik I NO DERM at uh). We use names such as sea star, sea cucumber, sea urchin and sand dollar. So your familiarity with the members of this phyl...

Back Basics: Exercises to Keep Your Back Scuba-Ready

Fri, 03 Aug 2001 04:25:34 +0000
Low back pain is a very common medical problem, estimated to occur in about two-thirds of adults. Because divers must move around a great deal, climb ladders, lift tanks, and be capable of self-rescue and assisting other divers in the water, back pain can be more than a nuisance for a diver. In some cases it can keep you out of the water. Back pain can result from a variety of injuries or illnesses. The purpose of this article is not to help you diagnose the cause of your back pain. That task...

earth’s ocean: The Geology of the Sea

Note: This article is the last of a four-part series that examines the primary disciplines of oceanography. Geological oceanography is a discipline of ocean science that seeks to explain a lot about how the oceans came to be, their physical expanse and how they continue to change.
On first impression, the term “geology” seems to have little to do with the ocean. After all, geology is the study of rocks, right? Well, yes and no. Geology is literally the study of the...

Superfish Is Here: Is This Super Good or Super Bad?

Mon, 07 May 2001 14:06:31 +0000
Imagine a “superfish” that grows twice as fast as its relatives in the wild and on fish farms. Now imagine that this superfish costs far less to raise, is easier to keep and far more profitable. Next, suppose that superfish is a super spawning machine that dominates the mating scene. This product of modern technology and bioengineering might seem like a great idea to some. Those who farm the new species sure think so. But they have a vested interest. They could be rich by giving t...

The cnidarians, a varied group of animals that includes corals, sea anemones, sea pens, sea pansies, jellyfishes, and hydroids, are among the most beautiful of all marine invertebrates. Many species have a flower-like look and they are often considered delicate and soft. But beware. Their delicate looks belie their potent nature. Cnidarians possess an armament of well-concealed yet potent stinging cells. In fact, the word Cnidaria, (pronounced with a silent “C,” ni-dare’-ee-...

Physical Oceanography: The Motion of the Ocean

Mon, 02 Apr 2001 02:55:41 +0000
If you dive for very long in South Florida, you soon come to learn that there is no more welcomed friend than the Gulf Stream. Countless times, I’ve ridden seaward on dive boats while praying to the weather gods for two gifts: Let the seas be flat and let the Gulf Stream be near shore. As it passes through the Florida Straits and up the Gold Coast, the meandering of this famous River in the Sea, to a great extent, dictates local diving conditions. It determines the visibility, the...

Ask a group of people if they’ve ever seen a green flash, and some interesting responses will follow. Some may say a green flash brings money or luck to those who see it. Others will insist green flashes are the stuff of legends. Many might claim they see green flashes only after downing a few rum punches. And for the fortunate sky gazers who have witnessed a green flash, they must often defend their sightings and endure ridicule and skepticism. But science and a few photographs will...

Fish Imagery: Through the Ages

Mon, 06 Nov 2000 16:02:18 +0000
While working on a history project in the archives of the library at Scripps Institution of Oceanography, I stumbled across a book that virtually shouted, “Pick me up!” Its leather binding was cracked with age, its cover riddled with worm holes and its gilt edges worn with the dust of four centuries. Carefully turning the brittle pages, I marveled at the primitive woodcuts of fishes that were familiar, but somehow very different from those I’d encountered in the oceans of the...

Beyond the Soda Bottle: An In-Depth Look at Decompression Illness

Tue, 12 Sep 2000 13:56:25 +0000
Like most divers, I have vivid memories of my basic scuba training. Perhaps the most memorable is the evening my instructor showed up for class with a large bottle of Coke.® He proceeded to explain that, like the bottle of soda he held in his hands, our bodies are under pressure when diving. He made his point while vigorously shaking the familiar hourglass-shaped bottle. Then he placed it before me and asked if I would open it. I resisted, but he insisted. So cautiously and reluctantly, I...

A parrotfish is curled up on the corner in its translucent sack, trying to sleep it off, while gangs of crustaceans cruise the dark corners of...

From Ripples to Rogues: How Waves Are Formed

Most people don’t spend much time thinking about ocean waves. Those who go out on the ocean, however, can’t help but think about them. On even the calmest days the ocean is likely to have a gentle up-and-down motion as swells roll in. At other times, the motion isn’t gentle, and you begin wishing you hadn’t eaten so many tacos for lunch as the dive boat heads out to sea. The ceaseless...

Marine Habitats, Part IV: Life in the Open Sea

Wed, 02 Aug 2000 01:07:55 +0000
We loaded the boat in the first flickering light of dawn. Three hours later we were 20-plus miles/32 km out to sea, completely out of sight of land, over water in excess of 2,000 feet/610 m deep. Someone facetiously said, “There’s the ‘x’ that marks the spot,” and the skipper stopped the boat. Actually, the “x” was a small, free-floating paddy of giant kelp that was drifting out here, in the middle of nowhere. Giant kelp only grows in near-shore waters...

Neptune’s Nurseries: Where Sea Meets Land

The intertwined roots of mangroves help stabilize the substrate, providing a better environment for swamp residents. In such food-rich areas, it probably comes as no surprise to learn that barracudas and a variety of sharks are frequently encountered in mangroves. In the blackness before the first glow of sunrise, we entered the mangroves. It was low tide, and we soon found the bottom with the hull of our skiff. From there I put my light meter on my belt and some insect repellent in my pocket...

The chance of finding Spanish treasure is one of the bonuses of diving in many places along Florida’s coast. In fact, a few people have become wealthy diving for gold, silver and jewels recovered from the sites of wrecked Spanish ships. Anyone who finds even a single 16th-century coin can thank Mother Nature, especially the wind. The extreme winds of hurricanes and the waves they kick up sank most of the ships from three different Spanish fleets along different parts of...

New Year’s Eve, and the clock was just about to strike midnight. In the streets and bars of San Diego’s famed La Jolla district, bands were blaring, bodies were gyrating and the party-goers were feeling no pain. But the terrestrial celebrations were rather tame compared to the orgies and feasts taking place in the waters immediately off the beach at La Jolla Shores, roughly a mile away. Literally millions of squid had invaded the La Jolla Submarine Canyon. With them had come a host...

Even though they’ve heard of the tides, maybe even answered questions about them in science class in school, people who grow up far from the ocean are often amazed on their first seaside visit to see the regular rise and fall of the ocean’s water. The tides begin with the tug of the moon, but the sun,...

Their weight ranges from being so small they are almost immeasurable to roughly 30,000 pounds/13,636 kg. Some prey upon seals, sea lions, dolphins and billfish, while others feast on the tiniest forms of plankton. Some are highly migratory, covering thousands of miles each and every year of their lives, while others hardly move at all. Some are extremely territorial year-round, while others are...

How to Control Seasickness

There are many ways to describe it: tossing your cookies, hugging the porcelain, calling for Ralph or letting out a technicolor yawn. but no matter what you call it, it’s no laughing matter. Motion sickness (seasickness, or “mal de mer”) is a common problem of boaters and divers. At best it is annoying, and at worst it becomes totally disabling. I will never forget crossing the ocean between Truk Lagoon and Pohnpei through very rough seas. As our boat scaled 10-foot/3-m swells...

I remember vividly a dive trip to the Philippines, where we often had to shuttle from our large transoceanic vessel in small outboard wave runners to distant dive sites a half-hour away. We would don our dark-black wet suits, and suit up with tanks and fins by midway through the ride. It was very hot and humid, and no one carried any water to drink for the “quick trip” to the dive site. With the torrid sun beating down, the spray thrown up by the bouncing bow was a welcome cold jolt...

The first time I was asked to go grunion hunting, I was extremely flattered. You see, I was new to the San Diego area, and my girlfriend asked me if I wanted to go down to the beach in the middle of the night to bag some grunion. She looked me right in the eye and described grunion as slender, 5- to 6-inch/13- to 15-cm long, silvery fish that slithered up on the beach by the thousands when they mate.

One episode I particularly remember involved the kidnapping of a scientist. As this was the era of Sputnik, it was implied — though never overtly stated — that the culprits were a group of “stinking commies.” The scientist was being held in a cave on an island. Central to the story line was the fact —...

During an ideal day, few places on earth appear more inviting than a southern California kelp forest. On the surface, the Pacific is calm, the water warm, and there is hardly a cloud in the sky. Underwater, shimmering rays of sunlight dance through towering forests of giant kelp as waves roll gently overhead. Golden hues of kelp fronds stand out in striking fashion against a background of blue-green water. In some kelp forests, crops of bright-green eelgrass flow with the surge along the sea...

When I was a medical student at Duke University, we all observed the wards full of heavy smokers with lung cancer, heart problems and peripheral vascular disease, and it was fairly well-known that their nicotine habit was a big contributor. However, none of us said very much, because Durham was a tobacco town, and many of the doctors smoked. As a new doctor in the early 1980s, I became pretty vocal about the hazards of smoking, but that wasn’t cool at a time when everyone was into personal...

That’s especially true in a world where we’re bombarded with information, where data is amassed at a rate boggling the minds of those of us who learned math on slide rulers. It seems that anything that can help us “cut to the chase” is not only appreciated, but often the only way we can get a message across. The famous KISS principle — “keep it simple, stupid” ...

Learning to See, Seeing to Learn Part II More of What’s Going on Underwater

Sat, 12 Sep 1998 13:53:48 +0000
This tiny, well-camouflaged clingfish provides a classic example of commensalism. The clingfish gains protection by hiding on its host — a crinoid — while the host is unaffected. Have you ever seen a fish remain almost perfectly motionless as it is swarmed over and “picked at” by another type of fish? Or have you ever seen a fish look like it was “yawning,” only to look more closely and see a small shrimp or fish such as a goby swim unharmed right out of it...

Learning to See, Seeing to Learn Part I: A Look at What’s Going on Underwater

Wed, 12 Aug 1998 13:45:09 +0000
Everywhere I looked I saw sharks — big hammerhead sharks — some close to 11 feet/3 m long. I don’t know how many sharks were within view, but there had to be at least 200. Most were high up in the water column, but a smaller group of six or eight sharks was swimming just over the reef as they made their way toward me. I tucked in behind a mound of boulders and waited with great anticipation. Peering out from behind the rocks, I saw a school of bright-yellow barberfish and se...

The Personal Limits of Fear – Mind and Body

Thu, 12 Mar 1998 13:15:11 +0000
It was one of the scariest dives of my life. The March winds were blowing over the chilling 50° (F, 10°C) waters of Narragansett Bay as we swam across the barren bottom, following nothing more than a compass bearing to our destination. At a depth of 80 feet (24 m), the bottom turned to sand and sloped away into murky darkness, and it was there that my troubles began. Our pace had been only moderate, but for some reason I was having problems breathing. It seemed that my regulator wasn...

Of Glowing Interest: Bioluminescence in Marine Animals

Mon, 05 Jan 1998 13:46:04 +0000
The only glow-in-the-dark creature familiar to most of us is the lightning bug. A few other land creatures, such as glow worms and types of mushrooms also shine in the dark. This phenomenon is known as bioluminescence. Although rare among land animals, bioluminescence is widespread in the marine environment. Along with bacteria and algae, nearly every major group of marine animals has members that glow. You do not have to be a diver to see ocean creatures glowing in the dark. Bahia Fosforesce...

Preparation for Foreign Dive Travel: Considerations for Local and Exotic Destinations

Fri, 03 Oct 1997 04:51:39 +0000
Modern divers travel to all corners of the globe, and in doing so may encounter extraordinary health risks. These include uncommon bacterial and viral infections, tropical parasite infestations, marine animal envenomations, and exotic or contaminated food poisoning. According to Dr. Stuart Rose, who publishes the superb International Travel Health Guide each year (Travel Medicine, Inc., [800] 872-8633), factors which determine the risk of illness for a traveler overseas include the countries...

Malaria: Know the Facts and Preventative Measures

Thu, 03 Jul 1997 04:29:03 +0000
Many tropical adventures lead divers through foreign lands, where they can be exposed to vectors of diseases not commonly encountered in North America. The most worrisome of these afflictions is malaria. Malaria is caused by infection with one of four microscopic parasites: Plasmodium falciparum, P. vivax, P. malariae, or P. ovale. These are transmitted in the wild by the bite of an infected Anopheles mosquito. While malaria is present in more than 90 countries, most cases of malaria acquired...

Assessing Conditions – Whether your experience is good or bad is often determined before you even enter the water

Wed, 04 Jun 1997 05:11:34 +0000
Once, a number of years ago when I was living in California, I was at the beach and encountered two former students of mine who were preparing to make a dive. I’m always glad to see that people I’ve trained remain active divers, and it’s enlightening to hear about their diving adventures. After a brief discussion and exchange of pleasantries, they were off on their dive, and my wife and I retired to a nearby dockside restaurant where, coincidentally, I could see the divers...

Stinging Truths, Part 1: A guide to injuries caused by invertebrates

Sat, 03 Feb 1996 04:13:38 +0000
In previous articles in Dive Training (May 1995 and June 1995) we looked at injuries from vertebrate marine animals that can injure humans, most commonly by bites or envenomations from spines. The other enormous group of animals that can sting the unfortunate diver is invertebrates (without a bony cartilaginous infrastructure). Although uncommon, injuries resulting from close encounters with marine life do occur. Divers know to avoid sea animals with teeth that bite or that have painfully sha...

What is visibility? Illuminating facts about an unclear situation

Fri, 03 Nov 1995 14:25:20 +0000
What’s the difference between a great dive and a mediocre dive? In most cases, it’s a matter of feet — not in terms of depth, but underwater visibility. One of the most important considerations for diving is the “viz”. Clear water can make a mundane dive site shimmer in glory. Conversely, even the best coral reef can be a disappointment when it’s clouded by a veil of murky water. Visibility is generally considered to be the distance at which an object un...
