This video just deserves way more exposure

Great tips! I learned how to dive on the Central Coast of CA. My OW dives consisted of shore dives where I couldn't even see my hand in front of my face and the surge was so bad we had to hold onto each other. I feel like if you can dive off the CA coast, especially shore dive, you can dive almost anywhere. Now my husband and I shore dive in Hawaii and it's so easy! It's like going into a pool.

Just discovered your channel! My husband and I did this for our 10 year anniversary in 2016 with Nautilus. I'm so glad we were able to do this before they closed the preserve. What a once in a lifetime experience!

Amazing video friend 😊

I have a nauticam underwater housing for a Ninja V Monitor. Is there a way to turn off the splash screen menus on the Ninja V monitor, as this currently obstructs the camera settings. the monitor housing does not seem to have a button that can be used or extended to touch the main screen, which is the standard way to hide these menu overlays when not in a housing. this is also an issue if you are trying to use the record features of the Ninja V in ProRes mode. you need to hide the splash screens otherwise the overlay information will be recorded. any suggestions?

I like the video but the music is a little loud compared to the voice over. Looks like a really cool site though and I love your t-shirt idea.

What's the chance of getting eaten by a shark?

Just don't kick up the bottom for us trying to take photos.

This is definitely one of my favorite videos that you guys made. I probably watched it half a dozen times over the years. I hope that you are all doing well.😀

Gracias por compartir las bellezas que DIOS ha creado!

To answer the question of the title of your video. No SOLO diving the way you do it on this video is not safe. The fact that you get away with it desnt make it safe, it only makes you lucky. \this is not meant as a hater comment, just as a reflexion on some false impresions your video give. You introduce some falacies on the video. For example you mention that you are a diving instructor and you propose that when you are diving with your students you are virtually a solo diver. Well when you are diving with students each student even if not trained to assist you is acting as a redundancy source. Redundant air suply, redundant, buoyancy devices, etc. All things that you have failed to carry with you on this dive. You have racionalizations for your choice but none of them actually work to mitigate the chances of unforseen accident from happening.

I'm a cave diver in the DR. I have 54 cave dives and almost all are solo dives. Why? There are very few cave divers here and I'm not diving with someone not certified.

We use this often, but recently it hasn’t been working between masks. I think maybe it’s scrambling? How do you select from the menu options? I’ve tried so many different combinations 🫠

You all are amazing!

I like to clip my fins off until I'm ready to don them. I use a leash mainly or in the tropics I use a double ender.

Great Channel, I like the way you incorporate your diagrams during the dive navigation. Also what kind of dry suits are you using!! 🤙

can u do titanic

Just wow! What a beautiful journey, beautifully spoken. Thank you so much for taking us with you to explore one of our islands. I'll be featuring it on my Puerto Rico Guide. Did you dive the wall in Guanica? Keep sharing and exploring. Blessings.

4:25 Turning sideways to the current slows you down? I would have thought that would speed you up and that aligning with the current in a streamlined fashion would allow you to slow down. As you may conclude, I have not done a drift dive yet and looking to learn and do one. Thanks.

Great video!

It's because of this video I got certified as a Self-Reliant diver this past fall and I love it. Thanks for sharing and explaining everything so well.

We just did this dive with Sweet Bottom Dive Shop yesterday!! Amazing experience!!

Thanks for this video !

What a cool video, thank you boys for sharing.my father used to live in st croix, would send me pictures of all the fresh fruit and lobster they would harvest and bbq. What a life

Looks absolutely stunning! Just seeing stuff like this inspires me to want to get certified.

Thanks for the info! I visit the windy city occasionally and was wondering about diving there. You told me exactly what I was wondering about.

Great job on production!

There is something terrifying about diving with these majestic sharks. There, I fixed it for ya! They are beautiful but scary at the same time.

Was just here snorkeling here. Cool video and knowledgable info!! Thanks!!!

I have seen things in black water I do not know that they are

Nice video, but Leo Carrillo Beach is; IMO and many others, the best place in Malibu to dive. You don't deal with the crap you dealt with here; a long surf entry and longshore current, getting out to the best part of your dive spot. Plus, I don't dive if the surf is up unless I have to. If it's surfing time, it ain't diving time and vice versa. Though there is a large rock formation at Leo Carrillo which breaks that beach in two and to the left of it you can get some nice waves to ride while the right side remains somewhat protected from the surf. It's one of the few spots were you can see surfers and divers in the parking lot at the same time, though if the surf rises too high, forget about diving it. You can find many Spanish Shawl and Lemon nudibranchs at Leo Carrillo and I've seen both horn sharks and leopard sharks there. It's fun to tell non-divers you swam with horn sharks when they don't know the horn sharks are only about eighteen to twenty-four inches long, they just sit on the bottom waiting for nighttime to go hunting shellfish and the only way one would bite you is if you stuck one of your fingers down its throat.

Great exploration 👍

We’re heading to St croix in late Feb to spend a week enjoying the diverse dive areas. Thank you for a great video. We plan to night dive the pier. ❤🤿🐠🐙

Omgoodness!! I’m 20 dives into scuba & watching these videos gives me ah-ha!! moments. Using the SMB as a circular float never crossed my mind, but what a great tip!!! Thank you for showing what may be obvious to some, but only comes clear when it’s pointed out. Thanks for the great tips!!

Hey, love the video but please tell your son to not use his arms so much to keep buoyant

Body surfing crescent bay with my buddies and the waves were 5 to 8 ft plus and these heads with masks start breaking the water we were on shore watching these knuckleheads trying to get to shore it was quite a spectacle watching these divers getting worked and pounded by the waves it was quite funny they should not have been out there we felt bad for the overweight man that got slammed into the shore on a beach break his buddies pulled him out but slowly each diver was getting pounded over and over we counted 9 divers total and it was a great show lasted about 1.5 hours of pure enjoyment

Very nice video. I enjoyed it very much. I did this wreck in 2019... A magnificent dive for sure. Safe travels.

Been there twice. Laid back. Enjoyable. Last time they had corals on ropes getting ready to transplant. Nice video.

Well done to the French for documenting and preserving this important site.

I got my PADI certification at Cane Bay, I maent my island. The lady that created "all my children" lived at rust up twist.

Love drift diving, heading down to Boyton Beach tomorrow morning, from NY, using Starfish also!......not fighting a currant to get back to the anchor line is so nice....

Two types diving: Diving alone Diving alone, where other divers are ( don’t rely on your buddy ) Two rules for all diving: Never go deeper than you can safely ascend without air (redundancy) Plan your dive, dive your plan ( tell someone what your doing and when they should expect you back) Nice footage 👏👌

amazing footage and narration!

Many of the artificial reef structures at Blue Heron Bridge were built by REEF CELLS. They have built reef structures for FWC, NOAA, UM, DARPA, ORA etc. in the Fl Keys, Miami, Ft Lauderdale, Palm Beach, Barbuda, Antigua and other sites.

THIS IS SO F***ING AWESOME!

I’m not sure why, maybe it’s a mind control thing, but I really love these critters.

octopus is a alien from 500 million years ago🫡

Not the split fins 🤣😂
