Diving the Fragrant Harbour (Hong Kong)

With the mass of postings on diving in HK that just seemed to appear, I'd
thought I'd join in.

Will be heading off to HK for a wedding in a tenday. Would like to spend a
day or two diving. Since I won't be there long (29th Oct - 8th Nov) is
anyone in a position or organise anything or make it a little easier to get
myself onto some dives? Lived there for a while, so know the area and speak
the lingo.

Thanks,
S.C.

You know HK is no longer a "Fragrant Harbour"!
Vis vary from 3-8m. If you really want to dive, I recommend the following:
http://www.scdc.org.hk/ (a BSAC dive club)

http://www.bunnsdivers.com/
http://www.prodive.com.hk/pd/main.htm

These two have good boats and organized day or weekend trips.

If you have 4 days, try to go to Philippines instead of diving in HK:

Do a quick trip to Puerta Galera via Manila:

I don't think that Hongkong is a good spot for diving. It doesn't really have a reputation for such. They are really popular for shopping and technology and the new disneyland. ANd I think it is best to travel Hongkong on land.
