I do love to explore, and even though I'm in my late....cough....forties, I still dream of finding a hidden treasure. The kid in me still rules but for diving.....hmmmm, not so sure. I think I'll hang out on the boat, and hold down the hatch.

I don't water ski either....lol....but hey, I do like to fish

Default In your 40's...

I once taught a woman in her 60's and her mother in her 90's to dive. They did real good until we went to Nubble Light for their open water dive. It was an all day affair just getting them in and back to the parking lot, I guess we should have picked an easier spot.

I'm in my mid 60's and still averaging 70 dives a year. Although, most of my dives aren’t what you would consider fun (mooring field hell), but I do occasionally get some exploring in.
It’s the adventure of a lifetime.

The best thing maybe to just give it a try in the spring and see if you like it? You never know, you could just have a great time!

You can do a lot of exploring with a swim mask and fins. I know because that's what I do!

Very true! But the tank of air helps to see the deeper things for longer Either way its good fun and good exercise!
