Feb has arrived, along with more COVID restrictions

Our scuba diving opportunities are becoming more and more limited due to cold weather and travel restrictions. Dealing with mandates of negative tests prior to departure and now prior to return makes it a gamble to travel outside the U.S. for any reason. Possibilities of being quarantined on arrival or even departure is a roll of the dice for many. But even using a dive boat in the U.S. now requires you to board and disembark wearing a COVID mask. U.S. Coast Guard rules even require the mask when doing a surface interval on commercial scuba boats.
