South Korea - Incheon

[marcbeaudry]

Hello all - a brief search turned nothing up - i'm travelling - and will return on a few occasions to Incheon - a port city in South Korea - a little ways out from Soeul. I'm curious about diving in the area and if there any reputable dive clubs, shops or divers a person could connect with to try and get some diving in when/if i get any time to myself -
I have'nt found any promising hits by doing a simple 'google' -any information or direction would be greatly appreciated..
thanks
Marc

I'm living in Seoul, and I've never heard of any diving around Incheon. The water is pretty nasty there, as it's where Han river meets the sea. Wouldn't want to do it unless in a fullface and industrial/chemical-proof drysuit, anyway... And the tides are horrible over the mudflats, too.

East coast and Jeju are both good.

How much time do you have in Incheon? If you have a weekend free you could hook up with Noma dive center in Seoul ( +++ ?????? ??? ?????.+++ ), and do an east coast Sat/Sun trip.
I've been out with them a few times. Their english is ok, and it's always a fun weekend.
