    BCD Failure

    Same thing happened to me in Oman while descending. The screw became loose and I sunk like a rock even though I kept adding air. Luckily my dive buddy noticed and tightened it.

    Trip Report Trip report - Sharm El-Sheikh, June 2019

    I did 6 day trip around the first week of June. I choose Camel Dive Club mainly due to excellent reviews and also for their competitive stay & dive packages. I booked through PADI travel. Getting there: I am currently based in Saudi so getting there was a short hop. You don’t need a visa if...

    Seeking suggestions for "best diving" + "most affordable" dive destinations!

    Just did a dive trip to Sharm el Sheikh, Egypt. I have to say I was quite impressed with the diving. I dove with Camel Divers and the daily trips, boat, food was quite good. Also very affordable. Will write trip report soon.

    New Diver! Recommendations Please!

    Congrats! and welcome. Cozumel hands down. I did my first real scuba trip there and had a blast. Although I did get a personal dive guide who was super helpful in improving my buoyancy skills and showing me the different marine life. Great people and awesome food was a plus (Blue Angel).

    Adding 2x Sola 1200 to GoPro; useful or waste of money?

    I have the same setup with GoPro 7 from Backscatter and I really like it. Tried it in Bonaire last year and got great video.

    Beginner diving suggestions in July

    Really enjoyed Cozumel and Bonaire last two dive trips. Those are great options, but trying somewhere new. Saudi does have a few options, but the dive ops are not that great. Egypt is another option for sure.

    Beginner diving suggestions in July

    Hi all, I am new to diving (under 20 dives) looking for suggestions to dive in July for 2 weeks (any location). I will be traveling alone and plan on hiring a dive guide. What place will have a balance of good diving, food and reasonable costs? Appreciate all your feedback.

    Questions about my first boat dive

    If jumping off(stride entry) no big deal. Depending on the boat size and wave action, make sure you hold on and steady yourself. Last trip, one dude lost his footing and almost went crashing down all loaded up. Fins are the last thing to wear just before entry. Rollback entry: Never done this...

    How Did You Find Your First Scuba Class?

    I lived next to the Red Sea for 2 years and never thought about diving. Was happy and satisfied with snorkeling (excellent snorkeling btw). Later moved near the Arabian Gulf and one of my colleagues was a Scuba instructor. He kept encouraging me to try it and after a intro dive I was hooked. The...

    Newb - Pls. critique my gear shopping list

    By the way, I am thinking of not buying a BC at the moment. Come to think of it, I don't plan on traveling with it anyways. I just wanted it for local diving here, but maybe I can continue renting or buy a used one. Also, is there any reason not to get full foot fins Vs. strapped? I am trying to...
