I started diving in August 2013, certified in Okinawa, Japan. Since then, I have been diving in the US (California, Florida, Arizona, New Mexico, Maui), Dominican Republic (Sosua), Mexico (Cancun, Playa del Carmen, Cozumel, Los Coronados), and Thailand (Phuket). Looking forward to diving many more places.

Now, I am located in West Palm Beach and primarily dive charters out of Jupiter, West Palm Beach, and Key Largo and regularly shore dive at Blue Heron Bridge. Always looking for good people to dive with, so feel free to reach out.

Johanna - 6/21/2015 8:59 PM Hello - I am new to the area and looking for some future dive buddies How often and where do you go? joe_bird - 6/21/2015 9:35 PM Hello, how often I go depends on where and the season. Here in AZ I go up to Lake Pleasant maybe once a month in the summer, but as the water gets colder and the visibility gets better I go more often. I have only been to San Diego once for diving and it was a great dive. I’m looking forward to going back for more dives there, as well as trying new places nearby no matter if they’re freshwater or saltwater.

joe_bird - 3/03/2015 5:43 PM Hello, I am looking for a dive buddy out here in Arizona. I live in Goodyear and I would like to do a couple weekends at Lake Pleasant per month while the diving is good and maybe doing weekend trips to San Diego or other lakes. I usually dive with my wife, but she isn’t much of a fan of cold water diving or lakes.I’m sure she may come along on some of the dives to keep her skills sharp despite her distaste for it and to get some more cold water dives under our belts. If you are interested or know someone that might be send me a message! Thanks, Joe Bird

eyeson - 10/23/2014 4:52 PM Thanks for the add! Hope to see you out diving? joe_bird - 3/03/2015 6:06 PM Hey, sorry for the extremely late response! I didn’t mean to blow you off, I was going through and editing some information on my profile and saw this as I was going through it. I hope to see you out there, feel free to contact me if you are ever in need of a dive buddy. I want to get some more cold water dives under my belt and explore sites at Lake Pleasant. I usually go with my wife but she doesn’t like cold water very much and prefers the ocean, I still manage to drag her out sometimes to keep her skills sharp though! eyeson - 3/04/2015 10:42 AM Sounds great! I am going to work on getting my wife her Open Water certification this summer myself! Maybe sometime this summer we can all go out on a dive. I hope to do some cold water diving before then. I’ll keep you posted. joe_bird - 3/07/2015 7:21 AM Great, I’ll let you know the next time I head up to the Lake.
