Welcome to NJScuba.net, a website dedicated to exploring the New Jersey / New York region underwater -- "Wreck Valley". Here you will find information on dive sites, marine biology, artifacts and activities, gear and training, and many other subjects.

The menu changes depending on where you are. The search works very well - try it. The 'Random' link can take you anywhere. Pick a subject, and dive in !!!

You can easily get involved too - comments are open on all dive sites. Leave your trip reports and updates right there in the website. If you have something more you'd like to add, you can get in touch with me through the contact page.

These books are indispensable for identifying the plants and animals found along the North Atlantic seashore. These should be available at any major bookstore.

A good project for rainy days and snowed-in weekends is to go through the plates ( illustrations ) in your field guides and highlight all the species that are found in your area. This will make the guides far more useful, and also give you a chance to become more familiar with the plants and animals you may encounter. Beats watching television.
