Unfortunately, I dont live near the coast, so I must cross long distances in order to get to the sea. Ive meant to travel by plane but Im not quite sure whether it is possible to bring complete equipment since there are some rules with airlines concerning weight of the luggage and number of bags. Traveling by car is completely exhausting. Any tips?

Why not using the plane when its the fastest means of transport? Its important only to have the right information. Firstly, you definitely dont have to bring everything with you since some parts of the scuba gear can be very cheap in place where you go, and you can find it out easily by making few telephone calls. On the contrary, some things like sunglasses or batteries can be extremely expensive. Some parts of the equipment you cant take into the plane, so forget about it. For example, you cant bring pressurized tank with you, but you can cheaply rent it. You could quite possibly rent other stuff at low price. I hope my advice will be of any use to you, and have a nice diving.
