Second time we did this event. Have enjoyed it both times. Would like to see more Monterey County wines served. Not sure why a some of the booths were allowed in, why allow a sauce or honey booth at a wine tasting?

PADI Open-Water Scuba Certification Course with Equipment Rental
I'm a complete beginner, and I had a lot of questions regarding getting certified, and following that with advanced open dive certification. I spoke with both Nick and Olivia, both of whom made me feel very comfortable and answered all of my questions. They were extremely helpful, and I can't wait to begin my lessons! This place was recommended to me by a friend who has been diving for decades.
