Re: Silfra fissure, Iceland

I did this dive when I was over 60 but before the requirements were so restrictive. I think you nailed it while snorkeling, Jan, not much more to see. If you ever get back to Iceland you should also consider diving with the Strytan Dive center north of Akureryi. Great dive guide and you get to visit...

Re: San Juan Boat Access Snorkelling

There is a website called Plan Your Dive (https://www.planyourdive.com) That has a map showing dive sites. Many sites have a description, but the site is oriented toward scuba. The shore diving sites may be better for snorkeling.

Hope you can find something.

Re: Fort Flagler

Fort Flagler is a nice site. I have attached a map of the dive site someone gave me. It includes corrections for slack that have worked well for me the few times I have used them.

Major Changes for Point Hudson

My wife has successfully used vinegar for stings in the Sea of Cortez. I have also heard that Adolph's meat tenderizer works, but have not tried it. Treatment needs to be early.

Re: Murky Waters

The summer sun promotes the growth of phytoplankton in our nutrient-rich water. Abundant phytoplankton supports growth of zooplankton. All that plankton makes our summer waters a bit turbid.
