Hello Dri18, did you end up going on your trip in April? How was the water temp for you and what was it like in general? I'm thinking of going this April. Cold but tolerable for me was Poor Knights Island NZ, I was in a 7mm suit and it was 14C

Back on mainland Bali now after three days diving in Lembongan and would like to fit in one more dive before I depart on August 2nd. Thinking about doing a day trip from South Bali to Menjangan? Looks pretty good based on online videos and spoken to some divers who had just been there a week...

Thanks for the advice to all those who replied, did a mini trip report Dive Op review: Freestyle Divers, Dibba UAE - since I thought it would be fair of me to give back a little to this site since it's helped me research countless trips.

I'd also like to vouch for Freestyle Divers if you are looking for some diving in the UAE. I recently posted this thread about a month ago seeking advice for some diving around UAE/Oman since I was going to be visiting relatives in the area anyway. - Fantastic dives from UAE I was put in touch...

Anyone diving with Barracuda Dive this weekend (21/12/18 and 22/12/18) in Fujairah? I'm thinking of coming along.

That seems like a good plan, weighing up all the options doing this or going to Fujairah seem to be cheaper than flying out to Muscat.

I would really love to visit Egypt, but I have to visit family so that's what the location is based on. And yes I've heard that Turkey and Greece isn't that good. I used to be based in Australia but now i'm back in Europe so I'l have to deal with what's here, I did a couple of dives this year...

Thanks for the recommendation I really like that they have the option of fitting in 4 dives in a day.

Thanks, That's good to know, my diving dates aren't concrete yet, i'm thinking the Christmas weekend 28th-31st would be a good time for me. Although my flight lands in Abu dhabi in the very early morning of December 21st and then I depart on the 6th of January, so I am fairly flexible ...

Thanks, I'd actually seen you two reply on a few threads I had found concerning this subject so thank you for weighing in. I agree on spending a few nights there. I'm thinking I'd depart from Dubai Union Square Bus Station and get the E700 bus, or a shared taxi (if I can figure that out) and...

Hello, I'll be visiting relatives in Abu Dhabi in mid December until early Jan, and since I'm really keen to keep at it with my diving hobby (last dive end of March 2018) and I'd like to participate in a few days of diving. However, time and the cost of travel limits how far I can travel (so...

Hello Chrisch, I'll look into Port Cross, just had a quick look on on google images and it does look impressive. I'm shocked that there's not much fish at Portofino, as I've been told it's a marine reserve. Yes I won't be doing Brittany, Ireland and Isle of Man as they will all be drysuit...

Hello Vicko, Oh yes i'm well aware of Croatia. I've come across a lot of praise for it on this forum. And definitely know of Krk and will now add Vis to my to do list. Is Susak good as well? This time I won't be able to visit, as flights are too expensive from my local airport and I am limiting...

I did a Liveaboard with Uber Scuba in August of 2017, it was great, small numbers on the boat and a professional team. I don't recall lack of AC being a problem, as for power I seem to remember they'd turn off at night just after dinner and as everyone was going to bed. But have it on during the...

If you're into Military stuff and History i'd recommend the Australian Armour and Artillery Museum, got a great range of tanks you can view and a shooting range. I'd also recommend a scenic drive up to Port Douglas stopping along the way to do some of the short walks and you could work in a...

Diving on Rangiroa was great, didn't dive on Moorea but Moorea has excellent hikes! Try and get a place with a Bicycle so you can cycle around the Island. I planned my French Polynesia trip myself so I can't offer an agent sorry.

I've Dived with Dive Wananavu. Fiji was my first destination after getting certified, so I was very new, I remember being very impressed by the sites visited and feeling very safe and taken care of. This visit would have been towards the end of 2016. Fiji is a place I definitely want to return to.

Thank your contribution and for the well wishes! Funny I'm actually applying to study at your local University. Yes I've heard that coral and fish in the Med are sparse. Although considering this, I have seen some pretty good videos on you tube (which i've included) of divers diving in the...
