Hi everyone.

I am the dutch guy ( my real name is Coen but i bet that none of you can pronaunce it correct ;-p )
At first i want to appologise if my english is crap, it is not my native language.

I was lucky enough to visit your country a few times in the 70's. Loved everything about it. Never did dive there. I do have friends in Germany who dive and they talk about the many hoops they had to jump through to get certified. Is it difficult to find instructors? Is it expensive? Lastly I might ask do you have diving destinations in Europe you're hoping to visit someday? It's good to learn a little, thanks.... Adventure-Ocean

Great that you loved my little country.
It is not really hard to find a good instructor here.
Our underwater conditions are not always great, so the diving can be a bit more stressfull compared to tropical waters.
If its expensive i dont know i think it is around the same prices as in most holiday resorts.
I really want to dive in austria or switserland one day.
The crystal clear mountain lakes should be awesome!
