The Ultimate Gear for New Divers


Becoming a certified scuba diver has opened your eyes — in a profound way. Now that you posses the proverbial keys to the underwater castle, where to first? Your maiden dive trip should hit three important notes: relaxing, easy and, above all, fun. The destination should seduce your senses, offer ample infrastructure and be populated with lots of like-minded travelers. In addition to choosing the right destination, you also need to pack the right dive gear. To maximize fun and safety, bring along equipment that is user friendly, ergonomically pleasing and built to last. The dive gear below will make your first dive vacation one to remember.
Big Eyes Crystal Mask
An ultraclear skirt provides an open feel and a secure seal.
Frog Plus Fins
A specially tuned blade is forgiving of less-than-perfect kick styles, and ideal for new and occasional divers.
Archimedes II Computer
Easy to use out of the gate, the Archimedes allows up to two nitrox mixes, so it grows as you do.
Summer Wetsuit
Thin 2.8 mm neoprene provides perfect protection for tropical dives, complete with extras such as neck and cuff seals.
Delta II Snorkel
The Delta II works when needed and stays conveniently tucked away when not.
Travel Lite BC
Built to pack as easily as it dives, this BC still boasts creature comforts like weight integration and a padded back.
Ellipse Steel / MC5 Reg
Paired with a compact first stage, this easy breather is ready for the road.
