Hi all!

[DaniDives]

Hi people!

My name is Dani, I'm new on the forum.

I'm a scuba instructor, living and working in Dubai and I recently got into sidemount diving. A whole new world, but I'm loving it so far.

I'm interested in the teaching, sidemount and girls sides of the forum to share my knowledge and learn more from you guys and gals. I'm sure I'll learn a lot here.

Bye!

Hi Dani. Welcome to SB. It's not as hot here as Dubai in the summer. Do you just stay underwater in August?

 

[DaniDives]

Nice to see theres more people living in the UAE!

We do our best to leave surface intervals as short as possible but even the sea feels like a bath tub in summer..!

Quite a few on this site

but even the sea feels like a bath tub in summer.

You must be diving in the Persian Gulf, the east coast is much cooler

 

[DaniDives]

Both, Dubai for courses, Fujairah for trips but it’s still hot to me

but it’s still hot to me

Some of us only just stopped using drysuits at the beginning of May

Which dive op are you working for?

 

[DaniDives]

Lol, better to be warm than sorry...
I'm currently freelancing and slowly starting up my own business, @Divingfactory on instagram.
We organize speedboat and dhow trips to Fujairah and soon again to Oman.

What about you?

 

[Searcaigh]

I normally do rec dives with Barracuda our of Fujairah International Marine Club, and the occasional tec dives with XR Hub ($$$).

I have a tec dive with Freestyle this Friday with @RainPilot

Can't wait to get up into Musandam again, it's been too long. You might want to look at the Regional Area of the forum for UAE diving
