Hi All,

My name's Dan and I'm a newly qualified diver from Leeds, just done my OW and AOW in Sharm, loved every minute of it so I'm looking forward to doing some diving in the UK. Is it true that it's going to be colder over here?

Looking forward to getting some pointers about where to go etc.

Thanks, Dan

Hi Sprozman
Glad to hear that you are keen to try diving in the uk. I used to think that it was just good practice for warm water stuff but 100 dives later I think it's the real thing!
Enjoy
Jules

Welcom aboard mate, lots of people on here with experince from fresh faced newbies to old sea dogs. One motto, dive safe and make it friendly, or is that two.

<font color='#FF0000'>As one who has only dived here and my first open water dive was below 0' on a very foggy morning in Feb this year. I can only say, that according to the people that I dive with that, it's not colder here but warmer there. enjoy I do lots, see you soon.
