Cost and reservations: You will need to make your own reservations online at [https://www.laketravisscuba.com/](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.laketravisscuba.com%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExWHJVSUpMRUNWUTh3OWJBbgEeRZH2j3mD8YS1OsDf6kQwwA_1EBuAjhgkL4QYjuqxiYIuHGHU_vu2G5z00LA_aem_aHWxF--oFAUV-bZfgxcczQ&h=AT1a2169cpY6Eh54Beh3l6sDI0TiFqXdNpBCBN7-Ayg1Y11YWNxUXjv3yCE-nPc6Dct4Efm_x9wS77Yd-zO4WFPs83zwoxNhsJPuGjWL55L4OihAcrcUGXprd9ESiKLUqNewNyzruIZyK3dQHG_YoX8VAW0yLA&tn=q&c%5B0%5D=AT3Kqg4p4HGso_5QR8NRNlfeJznxZs5RxToVmL4Fxfv9xY2t1pE_9WBtA0_WiFaaK8-af2nrnvH0EhIyXNG26vY1ep_3nJS2GcMpe5QUmVogbY_PZ7SXsEO-LEDz3rLIg9Q) and the cost is $65 pp. The Giant Stride will haul us out into the middle of Lake Travis. Depending on the temperament of the boat captain, the Giant Stride will either drop us into the lake in the middle of nowhere; or if we ask politely, Robert, the boat captain, has his favorite dive sites. Dive sites such as: Starnes Island, Fiesta Haus Wall, Oasis Wall, The Shaker Plant, West Point Cypress Creek Wall, Wreck Alley. What is that? You say you have never heard of any of these dive sites? Well, you have never been aboard the Giant Stride. Please come join us! It will be a blast! I promise. Note: make your reservations now at [LakeTravisScuba.com.](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2FLakeTravisScuba.com%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExWHJVSUpMRUNWUTh3OWJBbgEeGznEYddamGtdotwF-VsPv8x4kuZFzbRy8XURBADgcK2WRmz2q0v-Qnjlq7Y_aem_N0S7kct21Fi7-3GG2HvJqA&h=AT2Eazv4satUGrCGbomo-FdnDo3DR2U1cF5eKhUBc4xqxPNVDHyEW0U-iXmG21LsDjiRt6jzenHbJ0ZauGK2dBX6AW8XxIM5IK99Pwo23bCXdyGOOO85s5vg6LsZd5n1WBycKo-rr_0lMLmxhwjkLR-5G9vvdg&tn=q&c%5B0%5D=AT3Kqg4p4HGso_5QR8NRNlfeJznxZs5RxToVmL4Fxfv9xY2t1pE_9WBtA0_WiFaaK8-af2nrnvH0EhIyXNG26vY1ep_3nJS2GcMpe5QUmVogbY_PZ7SXsEO-LEDz3rLIg9Q) The boat is open to everyone and will fill up.
Equipment: You must have all your equipment including weights and tanks and something to drink. The diving fee to board the Giant Stride is $65. For $65, we all get to take a 4 hour, 2 tank, dive excursion to wondrous dive sites across Lake Travis!! These dive sites are only accessible by boat so the dive fee is well worth it!!! Please come join us!
Note: They also offer two tank rental for $25 where they will have the tanks available on the boat. Lake level is low and it's a pain to haul your own tanks down from the parking lot to the dock so I would highly recommend renting tanks.
Dinner: After the conclusion of our Giant Stride morning and afternoon dive we can all go eat dinner. I have heard the Austin area has some decent restaurants. Location TBD and suggestions are appreciated.
Where to stay: Hotels range from $100 to $200 per night. You can also check out the B&B and AirBnb. Or go primitive and camp at https://windypointpark.com/camp-picnic/ and possibly dive there.Scubadillos, outing planned for July 26th is a Lake Travis boat dive.
