      Split Fins

      Modeled after a whale’s tail, split fins funnel the water delivering more forward motion with considerably less effort than traditional blade-style fins. The twin blades act like counter-rotating propellers, reducing drag and turbulence, allowing for easier underwater maneuvering. Many divers also report that, after switching from blade to split-fins, they no longer experience calf muscle cramps.

      Blade Fins

      Classic blade fins are known to provide strong and powerful kicks in the water. Divers comment that blade fins are best when the need is for speed and/or lots of frog kicks. They are commonly used for cave and wreck diving. Blade fins are slightly negative in buoyancy which counteracts a thick and highly buoyant exposure suit.

    Dive Travel Tip

    Make sure your passport and/or visa are up to date. Many countries require that you have at least 6 months of validity left on your passport before you enter. It takes about 6 weeks to obtain a passport and 6 months for a visa, but you should allow longer during peak travel times.
