Hi everyone,

I'm new to Kuwait and the region.  Interested in finding some diving buddies.  I'm a licensed instructor but haven't actively taught for many years, just like to get wet whenever I can.  Any info on getting linked in to the sport here would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Kuwait Divers on twitter also run quite a bit of events, cleaning the sea-bed (i doubt theres a reef in Kuwait, i could be wrong), so id hook up with them if i were u ;)

i'll be going for my diving license soon, hopefully :)

Hi,

You can check out the following websites. There are various dive centers in Kuwait that offer trips and courses in line with some of the world's best diving organizations, including PADI and BSAC.

- http://www.alboomkuwait.com/wp/ (The Al Boom Marine and Diving Center)

- http://www.divecaroline.com/ (I heard that this is the only center that offers night dives).

- http://www.scubadivingplanet.com/compan … index.html (at the Hilton Kuwait Resort Fahaheel). This center is a 5 star PADI dive center offering over 30 scuba diving courses. I believe they also arrange diving and snorkeling trips to the islands of Kubbar, Qarough and Um Al Maradem.

- Dive Center at the Palms Beach Club in Salwa: http://www.palmsbeachclub.com/Default.aspx?pageId=16

As of my information the Main Kuwaitis Divers Center you can find at salmiya club  "Al-Khansa Street" -- (the swimming pool entrance)

Also a suggestion to have a weekend in sharm el shakh ;)

I love to dive!  But I have not been SCUBA diving for a few years, so I'll need a refresher course.  My co-teacher and I are both looking to get back into it, so I hope we can meet up with you guys and gals and get back in the water.  I really would love to dive the Red Sea.  I've heard it's gorgeous.

Nomad12-
I have been diving in Kuwait for the past year. Might I suggest Bubbles Diving center. The Cpt is very acomidating and his staff,service, boat are professional and up todate.
The classes are set to the groups schedule, and you recive a personal level of involvement from the instructors and divers that lack in some of todays watch a dvd/ read a book dive training.

They schedule trips to the red sea, Dahab, and several other locations. Also the local reefs are teeming with life. I wont lie the conditions here are not Belize or the philippines, but if you are an avid diver or just some one looking to start you will find a site that you enjoy.

Hit me if you are still looking for info.
