You don't have to do dive in tropical waters all the time, there is some great dive sites here in the uk. The lochs in scotland have some crystal clear waters with loads to see. Along with some excellant dive sites on the south coast.

hiya ASD i planned to do SCUBA diving in Cuba, i took lessons in the swimming pool to get the hang of breathing apparatus, i panicked at first and kept coming up and pulling the (believe its called ocotopus) off, the guy teaching me eventually put more weights in the jacket thing i was wearing and got me sitting at the bottom of the swimming pool for 5 mins, after the lesson he told me i was good enough to go out into the sea and he wanted to take me an hour later, but i didnt have the confidence to do it and when all said and done he was more interested in getting the money for taking me out than he was in my confidence, its still something i'd love to do and will try it again the next time im abroad

at least your taking lessons here in preparation for diving in the Red Sea and i wish you every success, i know the peeps that did dive in Cuba said it was absolutely awesome and brilliant experience

Muff diving is similar to scuba, it often smells, you get wet, and you might even see some crabs. lol.

I would love to try some scuba diving I was in Key West a couple of years ago and thought it would have been great to have a go but didnt have the time.... :-(

I think I will be looking at taking it up tho, are there lessons easily available in the UK?
