You know, Conce, :m16: I already reached 50. :luxhello: Can you swear you reach the same age? :maniac: Hehehehehehehehehe :spaninq:

Great words, Bob. Learning and applying what we've learn. That's what we should be here for. Not labels. Great words.

Sorry, can't help you. My first time. :-) I usually dive (in Portugal) with 15ºC and less. Any improvement will be welcome. :-)

Thank you Marek! I'm living from Hurghada for the North route. I hope I get 30º too. :-) Regards

Obrigado mikelegurra!

I'm sure there is an average diver that does not go to both extremes: neither DIR and perfect nor pinballing in every rock. When I say "DIR and perfect" I mean it. IMHO what the DIR guys are trying to achive is perfectness. I'm not discussing if they are right or wrong. I just believe they...

Obrigado Conce, my problem was september, not august, though! :-)

Although I'm not a certified DIR diver, I tend to agree with the majority of the concerns I see the DIR people mentioning. Nevertheless, the fact that I have to travel from Portugal to Spain or to England in order to find a DIR instructor so I can take the courses ... makes me unhappy. I have...

Hi, Can you tell me where in Lisbon is the embassy? Going there sure beats the waiting at the airport. Also, does anybody know the water temperature in September, at the Red Sea Thanks

Thanks Stephen, This is going to be very helpful. I'll take the Portuguese Law and study these subjects. Dive safe :)

Dear Genesis, It is not how you feel that matters. Your instructor may be the top of the tops in what concerns overhead diving. You are not ... When a certified wreck diver is the buddy of a non certified diver, he/she should at least ask the non certified "are you ok to enter?" And, no...

Hi guys, As you all know, law changes from country to country. :( Continental European law is totally different from US and UK law. I've been taking my AI course and this book "Law and the Diving Professional" is a must read for this course, but ... it was written for the US and...

Hi Scuba Barbie; In Algarve you have several dive places; I'd go to Sagres and dive with Oceanox (96 485 40 21); Madeira is a nice place with wonderfull dives. I cannot recommend any specific dive center because all I know is from friends. VENTURA DIVING MADEIRA (291.225.589) could be...

Diving in Spain? I hope this can help: Two nice places! Islas Medas (L'Estartit - Near Girona). Beautiful dives. Well organized. Several dive centers. You can try Unisub at 972-75.17.68. Aguilas, near Murcia. Two centers. Nice dives. You can try Club Almadraba at 968-41.96.32. All...

Hi, I'm sorry nobody seemed to answer Suzana's original post about Madeira. It IS beautiful with "funtastic" dives. The is a preservation law and you can dive in places where there is no fishing and fish are friendly. :) Then, in the little island of Porto Santo (just near Madeira)...

Please read the post in the other thread. :)

Hi Taff, :) Good places to dive in Lisbon (or nearby): - Cascais: Exclusive Divers (Fabian - Owner - 93-765.43.22) Good for a OWD. Shallow dives and nice people there. Train from Lisbon to Cascais and dive center just by the train station. You should warn Fabian you are coming. -...

Fotos molt macas, las tuas, Josep. This is the type of site that will surely bring people to dive. Congratulations PS: First sentence translation from Catalán - Your's are very beautiful photos, Joseph.

Do you think PADI could create an "I'm Stupid" certification? This would create business opportunities for some dive shop owners and instructors. Eh eh eh eh ! :baby:

74% of all answers show less than 100 dives. Interesting! :shades:
