« New Year Starts Great ! | GTDS Information Index | Out with the OLD and into the NEW GTDS »
Spring season is in full force, everywhere the green is deepening, and the Summer days are around the corner, along with the summer showers, water temperatures are continuing to hover in the 80’s (28-29celcius). What is it with Guam waters, when is it going to cool off? We’re so wanting to break out the dry suits. Maybe if it gets down to 27 celcius???
The boat schedule is on the website !!
Check out the schedule for end of this month, and a new schedule will be out soon for May. Check it out, and join us.

Salt Water Ugly:
Caring for your gear: is everyone truly rinsing their equipment after every dive? How about actually soaking it? Post dive rinsing is very important, but it is only the first step in protecting your gear from the impacts of saltwater. Soaking your gear in fresh water, should be added to your regimen. If you want to do a quick evaluation of potential salt corrosion, go to the regulator, pull back the hose protectors that are on the hoses up close to the first stage, if there is corrosion, then it’s probably a good time to take your reg in for servicing. If you’ve been doing a good job at rinsing, and soaking, there should be no, to little, discoloration underneath the hose protectors.
Looking for when’s the best time to dive? Any day, as there are boats on the dive sites daily.
But what is our best kept secret? GTDS has a wonderful Divemaster/Guide who is leading free shore dives every weekend. His name is Barry (we call him Bear, because he’s the kind of gentleman you want on your side in a dark alley). Barry loves taking folks to out of the way dive sites, ones that are visited only infrequently. In fact, most of the sites he visits, are really only known by ‘locals’. So if you’re looking for new adventures, and having that professional, as well as local expertise, to guide you along, seek out Bear (I mean Barry), and enjoy some of the best dives available from Guam’s shores.
