Hello all

Does anyone have any knowledge of PADI training in Hong Kong.

I'm travelling out there later in the year and I might take the opportunity
to do a couple of courses, if the training is any good.

I'm already RD so I'm looking at Nitrox and possibly a couple of others.

TIA

Alistair

I used to live in HK and there are two places that I would probably point
you towards

Mandarin Divers www.mandarin-divers.com
ProDive www.prodive.com.hk

The diving in Hong Kong is not great. Mostly shallow with pretty low vis
and not much to see. Winter water temps drop to low twenties-high teens.

If you have enough time you might want to consider doing a short trip to the
Philippines, only a couple of hours to Manila from HK. Dive shops can
arrange it for you.

Yeah I agree with what they say, there certainly aren't many things on the underwaters of Hongkong than what can be seen on the land itself. There are plenty other things to do. If you want to die, you might as well go to the Philippines in Surigao or in Boracay area.
