scuba diving in Kalithea, Rhodes, Greece

[yankana1]

Hi ..I just wanna tell you Allex that you are totaly wrong about Trident and the Captain.

Is the best choice for diving in Rhodes ,family buisnes and the best service you can find on the island..I thing you do this because you was not good in your job !!!

[milne34]

I did this dive in 1993 and the bit I remember most was the beams of light shining through the roof of the cave and the different coloured at 6.37, and the fish swimming through it. Amazing, takes me back.

[bukroot]

@milne34 yup it really was amazing. :)

[AlexBassified]

just a tip...if you come again to rhodes and you decide going for scuba again...don't

go to trident...i has a good support and the best tutor you can find but the captain is an asshole :p

[bukroot]

@AlexBassified Thanx for the tip. :) i rather liked Waterhoppers. i'll go there again for my certification this year.

[AlexBassified]

@bukroot it's cool being an advanced because you could get deeper and can go through caves :)

[bukroot]

@AlexBassified thats exactly what i'm looking forward to! :)

[AlexBassified]

this is with water hoppers right?

[bukroot]

@AlexBassified yes, it is. you're right :) and they were wonderful!

[AlexBassified]

[Mattekiiing]

ya i know that haha but i dont wana wait 4 days wana dive first day , u can take some dive were they just learn u the basics then without certificate?

[bukroot]

@Mattekiiing yeah, sure! i dived immediately the day i went to talk to them. no certificate needed. :) perfect for people who are only here for a few days! you can definitely do that!

[Mattekiiing]

what did u pay to scuba dive? didn't u have to like get a certificat first?

[bukroot]

@Mattekiiing nah. they teach you all you need to know when you get there. although they have a program where you can get a certificate in 4 days. they're called waterhoppers and it's 45euros for the first dive, which is shorter. and another 20euros for the second one which is longer.

[speed19691]

[bukroot]

@speed19691 you can't image how glad i am to hear that!! :)

[michaeltandy]

[bukroot]

@michaeltandy aww.... u really miss this place. that's so cute, but also sad. i know how u feel. but at least u'll be coming to see it in a few months. that's great, right?

[michaeltandy]

[michaeltandy]

Ahhhhhh I miss diving Kalithea so much!!, was it Water Hoppers or Dive Med College and when did you do your dives?

Congratulations on overcoming your fear

[bukroot]

@michaeltandy thanx so much! it was with waterhoppers. when did you dive in kalithea?

[michaeltandy]

@bukroot I've Dived in Kalithea More times than some of the Instructors, I'm English but I grew up in Rhodes as my dad was an Instructor for Water Hoppers and then moved over to Dive Med College I started diving when I was about 4 (unofficially) haha and been diving ever since, so a good 18 years experience.

[bukroot]

@michaeltandy 18 years experience??? wow!! so i'm guessing you're 24 now? english, eh? do u live in rhodes or in england? i've never been to england, but i hear it's a must to visit. oh, and i forgot to answer your previous question: i did the dive two days ago.

[rkageru]

[rkageru]

@bukroot the best is that you are there!

[speed19691]

Wow!!!!!!!!

I'm so prowd of you!!!!!!

Loved it I never expected to see you in a diving suit I couldn't close my mouth when I saw you down there.

[bukroot]

@speed19691 it was cool, wasn't it? do you think dad'll freak out if he sees it? it was great fun, though! i really want to do it again!

[fufarose]

Hey champ that was dare devilish stuff!  Did your ears hurt?

[bukroot]

@fufarose nope. not one bit! i felt amazing down there! weightless, soaring around...i could hear better than i can on land and even though i was nervous in the beginning coz i'm generally terrified of deep waters, i fell in love with diving! i'm thinking about completing the course and getting a qualification that will allow me to dive anywhere in the world.

[PetroR1991]

Thats Friggin awesome! I'm gonna do some of that one day!!!

[bukroot]

@PetroR1991 pragmatika sou to euxomai! it's an unimaginable experience! hopefully by the time i come to Sydney i'll have my diving certificate and we can dive together!
