I think I,ve seen the answer to this one, but can't find it right now. Will the dive shop at Buddy's do the dive briefing Sat afternoon for people getting in on the Delta flight?

Depends on how many of you there are and if you arrange for a late briefing ahead of time.

Most afternoon briefings are around 2:00 pm or 2:30 pm.

I know that we are staying at Belmar this year and they use Buddy for diving. We were told in our correspondence that our orientation would be at 9:00 am the next morning due to our 3:30 pm or so arrival time - We are flying the Saturday Delta flight!

Last year when we had a group of 14 coming in on Delta, Buddy's would NOT do a second dive briefing in the afternoon. They told us they do it once a day at 9am - no exceptions. I would still contact them and ask... it never hurts to ask.

I just checked their website and according to this link http://buddydive.com/index.php/faq they have 2 briefings. One in the morning at 9am and one in the afternoon at 2pm. They do ask that you be there 1/2 hour earlier to fill out forms. They also have the forms on line to fill out prior to your arrival to save time.

Toucan Diving at the Plaza does them, we just e-mail ahead of time and it is no problem.
