Intro Post from a newbie

[SoulSniper]

Hello all!
I'm new here, and only getting accustomed to Diving world yet.
A recent underwater experience has triggered in me the "need more" clock, and i'm sure enough, it's not a stop-watch.
I'd been looking for breathing-air compressors since and this forum has been my book-mark to my favorite past-times/late-night reads.
Grateful for all the active members, helping newbies lime myself learn the ropes...
Much Gratitude

Welcome to ScubaBoard. Hope you find the adventure you're looking for. I don't see a lot of posts from people based in Indian, but SB has an international membership, so glad to see you here.

Richard.

Welcome! I've heard the diving community in india is very small, so I am glad to see a diver from that part of the world!
How difficult is it to find other divers or opportunities?

Thanks, Mac!
You've heard it correctly...
Despite endless (almost) coastline, It's very limited to tourist-heavy places/islands, or exceptionally where the geography has got the features to allow diving (caves and caverns).
Websites such as Dive sites in India - dive.site exaggerate what diving actually looks like here, whereas some are being factful over the world wide web...

Seven Places To Go Scuba Diving In India

October onwards is a good time to go scuba diving in India

And over that, it's too costly a sport, made here for obvious reasons...
I'd rather free-dive, there're are places untouched, though bit scary...
Europe is on my cards if things fall in place...
