MEET THE SOLA 1200 
If you've been night diving with us lately, you've met the Sola Dive Lights!
The Sola straps on to your hand/wrist so you don't have to worry about the task loading of entering the water at night and losing your light.
These light-weight yet powerful lights are rechargeable and don't require you to open anything ever; just rinse, dry, plug in and charge! The Sola 1200 (our favorite) has spot and wide beam functions and three "powers" of each.
 | | Ask Sara about her Sola! |
You can check out the specs here and when you're ready to see one in action, come visit us in the shop or sign up for a night dive! We have just received our third shipment of these lights, and they keep selling out, so don't wait too long to visit! |

SHARKS ARE NOT THE ENEMY
Scuba instructors, no matter where they might dive, usually hear a certain question just before entering the water. The funny thing is, the same question can mean two different things, depending on how it's asked-here are both versions:
"Are we going to see sharks on this dive?" (Excited, maybe wants to get a good picture...)
"Are we going to see SHARKS on this dive?!" (Terrified, and just sat through "Shark Week" on the Discovery Channel.)
As you might guess, the first quote is from an experienced diver, the second from one who's never been in the water before. And let's face it: if the only experience with sharks you have is the movie JAWS and footage of "feeding frenzies"... well, you might be a little nervous seeing one swim by.

SEA & SEA DX-GE5
What's Cool About the Sea & Sea DX-GE5?
Well heck, let's start with the price, for one thing! This 12 megapixel camera and housing combo sells for only $529 - that's less than our first 2 megapixel camera and housing cost in 2000!
What else? Well, the camera itself, outside of the housing, is waterproof to 16 feet, making it great to take along kayaking or paddling or even snorkeling! And right now, Sea & Sea is offering a FREE extended protection plan on all cameras purchased by August 31, 2011. We've got these cameras in stock and can order optional wide angle lenses and strobes, so come on in and check this out! |
