My first dive on Okinawa and only my 14th dive since certification in 1997. Haven’t dove since bad ear infection during refresher course in Aruba in 2010 and was experiencing surface anxiety issues. Went with hubby dive buddy but also asked NAUI Dive Instructor SandgroperDiver to go with us. First time diving with 2mm full suit since PADI training and had buoyancy issues. Was having too many equipment issues to really enjoy the dive. 200 plus steps up the side of the mountain were no fun though. Will need to work on my stamina before attempting this dive site again.
