Me and My Diving


OK here I am about to start the DM course, so I thought I'd share my Diving Experiences with you.

 

Me Diving at KH8 - Coventry

 


I started diving in 2006 and completed my open water dives in Crete, whilst on holiday.
After qualifiying I then decided to take a trip to Egypt in early 2007 and completed a handful of dives. After this I didn’t do any diving until late 2009 when I was going on a cruise to the Caribbean.

In June 2011 I wanted to get into UK diving and started looking for a local dive centre and found Scoobaboosta. Since then my diving has gone from strength to strength.

In the last 18 months I have completed the following Courses

·         Advanced Open Water
·         Rescue Diver

I also gained the following Specialities

·         Dry Suit
·         Nitrox
·         Equipment Specialist 
·         Deep Diver
·         Emergency o2 Provider

With the above complete I attained the Master Scuba Diver rating.

I've dived some amazing sites and here are 10 great dive sites / loactions / wrecks that I have dived

1. Thistlegorm, Egypt.
