Planning a dive trip can be a bit overwhelming. Whether it's a local dive trip for a weekend, or a longer trip flying international, there's a LOT that goes into dive travel. To start, you'll have to decide where to go, based on timing, vacation or holiday time, budget, temperatures and conditions, etc. Then you have to deal with all of the normal plans for travel, with a few more additions for diving such as extra permits that may be needed for dive gear or diving in a national park. You'll have to pick a dive center to dive with as well, whether that's an on-site dive operator located at your resort or hotel, or finding one at your destination. You have to worry about medications and general medical things, but then also dive related medical things like where the nearest DCS chamber might be. Once all of the planning is done, then you still need to actually start packing!
This video aims to be a complete overview of all the considerations that should go into planning your first dive trip and things i wish I knew before I planned mine.
