online UK scuba forums

[Lesley]

Does anyone know if there are any online forums for UK divers? I can't seem to find anything other than this which I think is for a specific association??

 

[Scuba Jim]

The best forum for Brits is probably Divernet (www.divernet.com)

This is not a forum for a specific association. As you can see it is predominantly an American site, but with a healthy UK contingency. There are even some Europe types lurking here too. We're all just a bunch of people who like diving....

I think I'll stick with this one as everyone seems good and friendly! It's not very busy though is it?!

 

[Scuba Jim]

Yes, we are all friendly!

This section has times when it is busy and times when it is not. It's not at the moment.

But there are lots of separate sections about diving in other parts of the world, equipment, all that stuff, so you may find a section that interests you. I usually only llok at 5 or 6 sections, but don't always follow all the threads. Only those that interest me.

Hi Lesley,

try www.yorkshire-divers.co.uk.

Don't be put off by the name as there are a large number of people from your neck of the woods.

Also its a whole lot friendlier than the Divernet forum.

More like this one infact.

uk.rec.scuba is a pretty good internet newsgroup, much higher scuba related content than rec.scuba.
