Can recomment the Mares puck pro, it does everyting one really needs, incl. nitrox and altitude, and costs under 200 USD, sometimes 150USD only. I also started with tables, got a computer when started diving again in 2018, and sometimes do deco diving up to nearly 60m with it. Works perfectly...

Not sure what you call low visibility, but we had always at least 15-20m if not more. That was in March and April though each time (we have been three times so far).

Hello, Has anybody recently been diving in Mombasa and could recommend me a diving center please? Will be going for work end of June and would like to do few dives while there, if possible also early morning and/or night dives. Thanks a lot!

Often when descending down to a wreck one descends quite quickly along a line and with the head down, then when at the wreck, pulls head up quite fast - this actually provokes narcosis more easily than if the same diver would descend vertically feet down head up and a bit more slowly, so even if...

I dive the C370 which I purchased for low weight for travel resons - but since I use that, the few times I do use any other, it feels super heavy now. Can really recommend. Though I have no clue on TMJ, I would try it out (rental?)

DAN Europe Bronze is up to 40m on air. DAN Europe Silver is up to 60m on air (if certified) up to 130m for any technical diving. In the FAQs section it specifically says: “Will I be covered if I plan a dive using a partial pressure of oxygen of 1.6ATA?” Yes, you will be covered since the gas...

That arrogant look many athletic muscled young men give middleaged female me when they watch me dragging my tank on the boat (especially if they don´t help). I do enjoy the look on their faces though when we have to give our dive parameters and I was 20m deeper for 20 minutes longer than them...

Really they are very beautiful! Actually I just got a TG6 but not yet a strobe and also had not jet the occasion to really get into all the different possibilities of the camera, just did automatic shooting to start. What strobe has she got? The light and colors are really clear! I would like to...

Oh thanks for these photos, they are really great! What camera do you use? My camera died at the start of our trip so I am really happy to see these as souvenirs and I confirm we saw all those as well. I really like the leaf, frog and crocodile fishs, there are lots and I never saw so many...

I am backing up KatieMac "try caribbean, lots of coral, lots of nice fish" I have looked up that crater you dive in and whilst I would find that interesting now I would have never started there or continued diving: too dark, too closed up, a bit spookey. Try warm water (most women get colder...

Or let us hope democracy and peace will be restored and they can be booked maybe next year?

It is due to the political situation in Sudan since 2019 unfortunately

Just checekd - for Wadi Lahami it states: "In Wadi Lahami we dive by high-performance RIB (ridged inflatable boats) only. https://www.redsea-divingsafari.com/diving/wadi-lahami so for shore diving it is only at Marsa Shagra and Marsa Nakari Weather wise June especially beginning is colder than...

I have been to Marsa Shagra in 2018 it is great. Best house reef I ever saw and interesting boat dives such as Elphinstone, the site where you can nearly always see a Dugong, and Dolphin reef. But really the house reef is so interesting one can just stay there most times. Food is also great. We...

Hi Jaan, Really loved it at Poseidon, I can recommend! Mnemba was also great, Poseidon go there also, like once or twice a week, a bit upon request. You pay a bit more but then you don't need to change hotel/guest house, and it includes a lunch. My favorite site was Shane reef, just incredible...

Hi Dan, Thanks a lot for the detailed report, this is so helpful! We always wanted to go to Maldives and kept postponing due to covid, but I hope we can go soon - though I doubt we will manage to get vaccinated this year Was that what is advertised as the Deep South route from Gan to Male 12...

Oh I certainly have my eyes on Oman but I am more of a slow traveler and would certainly need at least 3 weeks of real vacation there (just the northern part) to see all I would like to above and below sea level! So that will be another time and guess more after covid (vaccination). I have a...

Hi CD! Normally Diving Poseidon do two dives per day, as a double tank, and I believe most centers do if I remember well my research before I left. They leave at 8 or 8:30 depending where they go exactly, and return around 12 or 14 (latter when going to Mnemba island which is further away and...

Thanks for the fast and replies! I do prefer clubs that carry the tanks on the boat as I am not very strong and have a fragile back and won't be taking my sons with me either (poor guys have A-level exams in June). Do you have to take out your tanks with divers down as well or only your own...

Ok I confess we did it - travelling during covid times. Got frustrated with half the family stuck in other countries and no possibility to even get a goose here in Ethiopia so with no way to do the real German Christmas celebration anyway booked a last minute flight for the boys and me to...
