Re: Scuba Holiday with PADI qualification

Re: Scuba Holiday with PADI qualification
I have heard that Thialand island of Ko Tao is the cheapest in the world, not sure if this is true but its certainly cheap. I think the weather is good all year round but not sure when the storm season starts, living costs in thailand are also nice and low, most dive school give free accomodation with most courses.
Only problem is it gets quite busy, some of the bays where everyone goes for there first dive are riddiculous, a bit like that barclays advert a while back where everyone was diving in the same place. Ko Tao is awesome as well if you like the laid back backpackers style of life, if you dont like backpackers best to stay clear, you might bump into one or two. HTH |

Re: Scuba Holiday with PADI qualification
Quite a few places offer it, have a look when you book your trip. I know Carins Dive Center does, because I did mine with them and spent a night or two on board.
Cant recommend anyone else really, but its quite a common thing. Enjoy! Its great fun! Dan |

Re: Scuba Holiday with PADI qualification
I'm trying to find a cheap place in Egypt to go diving for a week anyone of where that would be good? I did the math with some places its like £500 for 7 days, which incldes hotel, flights 10 dives kit hire....I don't need all the kit just bcd and regs, I got a 3mm wet suit and dive computer etc.
I'm a Padi rescue diver and my mate is advanced I just need to do refersher before I dive its been more than 6 months....anyone any ideas? Only dived in the US and Mexico. |

http://www.emperordivers.com/ http://www.regal-diving.co.uk/home/ http://www.cameldive.com/ http://www.desert-divers.com/ http://www.nesima-resort.com/ I've done liveaboards from Sharm/Hurghada the last couple of years - just got back from one a fortnight ago - but I've also done a week's shore diving from Dahab which was good too - depends what you want really. I'm planning another trip to Dahab for a tech course either later this year or early next |
