Hi jccl,

I've moved your post out on it's own from that other thread it was buried in in to get your post the most visibility possible.

Good luck finding other like minded divers in the area!

Try the DIR Explorers forum: www.direxplorers.com

I think there are a few members from Dubai there, such as the person below:

Or you could try contacting Phi Le (aka Decoweenie) - he's a rebreather instructor (not "DIR") based in the UAE but he can probably point you in the right direction.

He can also be contacted at the Rebreather World forum:

DIR I am not sure, but try ScubaDubai on Shaki Zied Road, they have a good technical department. Also the local BSAC Club is excellent, again with a Technical division. They dive the Energy Determination 80m on the West coast, and I know they are diving the East coast also. I can give you a contact for the BSAC club if necessary.

BSAC is an awesome group of guys, I went diving with them In the Gulf when I was in Dubia for work
I am soooo green with envy, Dubai is one of my favorite cities in the world.
