As a scuba diving enthusiast, I was wondering if any other forum members are into the sport?

Ever considered taking it up again? There are some good refresher courses.

What places have you dived?

What about yourself?

I stopped because women got in the way lol. As I live in oxford it is the furthest place from the sea in britain lol.

How did I end up here, I grew up by the sea!

Started in 2006 on a trip to Oz. I did the PADI OW course in the UK prior to that & followed-up with 8 dives along the Great Barrier Reef. That got me hooked and since then I have dived in Phuket, Bermuda, Red Sea, Maldives, Malta/Gozo, Cozumel, Philippines, Turks & Caicos, Belize, Sipadan, Truk Lagoon and Fiji. Next stop the Cayman Islands in January

This is a link from one of my Phuket trips. http://www.flickr.com/photos/25941505@N ... 238201421/

Lucky you. I never found any women underwater.

Nice pics!

I scuba dove once when I was about 16 or 17 off the coast of california at catalina island. I would love to do it again but I haven't ever really had the funds. And I live 400 miles away from the ocean!

Not bad for a #2 driver

But living in Phoenix, you are easy flight distances away from most of the Caribbean and Central American dive places. I am sure that they have PADI facilities in and around the city and once you are re-certified, you'll have plenty of choice.

It is a beautiful story, Disney actually bought the rights to it and made a movie.

It all went sour in the end, the signs where there though, she kept talking about someone called Sebastian all the time!
