Any instructors in Cuba between Dec. 27 and Jan. 3, 20010?

[jamiesaari]

I just completed my PADI in-class and pool Open Water Diver course. The next step (as you know) is to complete four open-water dives with a certified instructor.

I fully understand the political situation with Cuba and PADI being an American company, so don't need an explanation on this.

I'll be travelling to Cuba from Dec. 27 to January 3, 2010 and am wondering if any foreign PADI instructors are travelling to Holguin and Guardalavaca area at the same time.

If so, I'd love to hire you to assist me with completing some open-water dives.

I realize this is like searching for a needle in a haystack, but thought I would try anyways.

If you (or someone you know) is available, please contact me at

Thanks kindly,

Jamie

Just a suggestion: you might want to cross-post this on one of the Canadian forums. While PADI operations are prohibited from "officially" operating in Cuba (regardless of where they are), there are some Canadian PADI instructors (as well as European) who do travel there to instruct students.

Thank you Deac in the Wake.

Can you recommend any Canadian boards that might be good to try? I'm a newbie.

Sorry for delay; holidays etc.

Try the Canadian boards right here on Scubaboard.
