Boat Trip (M.O. Wreck) - Great Visibility - March 2010
User Rating: / 0

It's M.O. Wreck again!!! Forecast is great and we are expecting to have 8 Knots and below wind so no waves and swell.... We travel for 1:30 hrs only using Yamama 1 fit with outboard engine 2x 250 HP Yamaha....


You can see from the top the wreck, this is very very rare in Qatar and we have this experience really COOL!

Everyone got excited and ready to dive and some want's to do free-dive first (I'm one of them)

Now everyone is ready, and ready to explore the Wreck.


Toni our instructor and Tish are waiting for some diver to descend. Current was a little bit strong having something like 1.5 to 2 knots but the rest of dive was tolerable it just needs some good planning during the dive. We are lucky we have our OLD TIMER Instructor who knows what's best!

APO Beach Clean Up Qatar (Umm Said) 2009
User Rating: / 0
Alpha Phi Omega Qatar Alumni Association
participates earth day 2009
Once again we spared our precious 24 April 2009 Friday in celebrating the annual Earth Day through beach and underwater volunteer work.

We have collected a substantial quantity (approximately three cubic meters) of all sorts of trash, most of them non-bio-degradable.

"A piece of debris we collected is a ton of awareness for goverments to enact environmental acts".
 
 
 
 
 
 
PADI Dive Master Bro Dan Suratos is busy collecting rubbish underwater. Hand by hand we can help clean our environment for our childrens... 'One Diver One Bag of Trash' must be our sports, not just scuba diving.


While we clean underwater we enjoy the good visibility in Qatar I think this is my 4th Time experience in this kind of visibility here in Qatar, and I got a lot of very very good pictures.

We ejoyed it A LOT!



These are the rubbish we collected from Underwater and Shore clean up
