The Dive Evangelist

You've got plenty of reasons to go on an Oceanblue Divers trip:

• Great value: Just compare them to any comparable trip offered by a dive shop if you want proof of that.
• Fantastic destinations: This past year, Oceanblue has traveled to Sulawesi, Bonaire, Cozumel, Roatan, the Bahamas, Key Largo and California's Channel Islands (not to mention exotic Dutch Springs).
• No hassle: The trip organizer does all the planning and preparation for you.
  
• Fun people: You'll hang out with a group of fun divers.

Most people probably book dive travel based on the first two items: price and destination. But in my mind, that last one—fun people—is the oft-overlooked but best reason to go on an Oceanblue Divers trip.

So far, I've traveled with the club on five of the trips (Bahamas, Cozumel, Bonaire, the Channel Islands and Roatan). On those trips, I haven't just met new divers—I've made friends for life. Now, Oceanblue happy hours are more than just fun and informative evenings for me: they're reunions with great friends.

If you're new to the club, or if you feel like you haven't gotten to know as many of our members as you'd like, I would tell you "Go on a trip." You'll greet strangers in the airport for the departure, and bid farewell to new friends on your return. Oh, and you'll do some diving too.
