Dear Members


Summer is nearby and we are planning to activate the scuba diving activities this season. I'm sure that some of you are still going to go for desert driving but we have a very good number of people who would love to join their follow almosters in scuba diving adventures.

Also, we are going to add a new badge under your name if you provide us with a copy of your diving license on the forum as evidence and then we can start our planning for our trips in this section.

Moreover, we are going to do our best to get you the best offers and discounts like what we did last season, so we can have more divers in our community

If you have your own diving gear then I advise you to take it to a certified service center to do the annual checkup and get ready.


Have fun & Dive Safely

Not advisable to go high in altitude after a dive, you might blow your lounges :mask:

Excellent!
Is there a certain email address which we can send our diving license to?

In that case will I have to get the misses to register for the diving trips separately as well?

I would love to get my hands on scuba diving license but the question is where to get it from, we do get some offers from our company ranging between 1400-2000 AED and course lasts 3-5 days............... I will keep an eye on future deals but if you guys come across anything less then count me IN!!! :)

See you soon in deep water :)

You have to be very careful with selection of the courses as the majority of fees are going for PADI license. Without this license you will not be admitted to any diving in other International diving centres. So check, if somebody offering the course, is also offering PADI license.

Additionally, if you do not dive frequently, you need to get refresher course again and again. For a single day dive, you can count about 100 Euro in worldwide diving centres.

If you want to dive without PADI license, the best is to use your own bathtub.
