Re: Drager Dolphin, new.

Experience comes with time in the water.

Sites-
San Marcos River- Shallow dive (bring a snorkel-hehe)
Favorite site- one of the few waterfalls you can dive in texas for free.

Windy Point, Lake Travis (outside of Austin)
Private park with excellent access. Lake is closed right now.


Scubaboard- look up Texas Swamp divers.
Great source of sites and events in Texas.
(Presently site is down.)

Comfort level.
I would recommend at least 100 dives.
Nitrox, Advanced Nitrox, Decompression and a few leadership courses.
Get involved and the time will fly by.

Don’t pass up on the coast diving…
It some of the best in Texas- love the Flower Gardens.

Hope the weather is better.
I was in Rockport for the 4th- we had fireworks for 10 minutes, the fireworks stopped and then it rained like nothing I had seen in ages.

Keep after it…
Another option is Oceanic Adventures in Houston.
They do all kinds of training…

Regards, Andrew
